Carrier 48XZN036060300 Defrost Sensor Board
The defrost sensor control board will begin the defrost cycle which actually helps to keep the outdoor unit free from frost build-up. It relies on a temperature sensor located near the condenser to determine when the defrost cycle should begin.
Major symptoms to watch for in a failing defrost sensor board
- Self defrost sequence never begins especially when there is a rather large amount of frost that makes the unit run like crap
- Most systems will stop running because of the frost blocking the flow of air
- The main board may show an error number when encountering a problem
