Carrier 50GS Defrost Sensor Board
The defrost sensor control board instructs the system to activate the defrosting phase which may be needed in order to keep your outdoor unit from plugging up. The control board is relayed information from a specific sensor located somewhere by the condenser to make the decision on when to initiate the defrosting cycle.
Indications of a barely functioning outdoor defrost sensor board
- The defrost sequence refuses to initiate especially when there is frost in the way
- The primary control board may show a type of error code referring to the failed defrost sequence
- AC and heating system could cease to operate for the fact of the frost blocking the flow of air
