does it have emergency heat.

May be compressor struck/Condenser fan motor struck/ short circuit/loose contacts are main reasons for fuse blown or breaker trip.

the drain line is clogged

I am having exactly the same problem. It says that the batteries cannot be changed (ccould just be ploy to get us to buy a new unit). mine is only 4 yrs old, and has never beeped before - the light used to blink once when i entered the kitchen. It is now beeping intermittently once per minute same as a smoke alarm needing a new battery.

Sounds like a clogged drain pan. You will need to have the unit professionally cleaned.
Hope this helps I take the time to answer your question so please rate me

Everything is wired right as long as the jumper is there. Put your unit is only a single transformer model and not a double. So that is where your issue is. I would as need to know the colors that you are using for the wiring. So if you can get that to me I can help you with a better wiring then what you have, but you are going to have to make sure that the T-Stat will work with a single phase unit.

is there a reset button on the cord....if not there is a control board on the inside...possible blown fuse or bad board...call if need help.walk through it ...michael 843-384-8474

I would change out capacitor in the event there is a short in it this would explain why certain functions are on or off. The capacitor sits in by the circuit board is round and is either silver or gray. Has several wires running into the top plug of the capacitor. Remember the way they are wired into the top of the capacitor so you can reinstall the same way. If that doesn't work you could have a short in the system that has disrupted you circuit board again. Have the circuit board checked at an electronics repair shop. They should be able to tell you if the board is bad or not without having to purchase another board.


Good luck hope this helped you some

Hi, this will happen because you have a problem with the heat side over amping for what ever reason. If it kills power to the plug and you have to go to the breaker to reset it, first take a look at the breaker.Remove the panel cover, look it over for signs of over heating, cracking and so on. Shut it off and take a screw driver to tighten wiring. You will not get shocked as long as the breaker is off. Wiring tends to loosen up and over heat over time and will cause a breaker to trip. They get weak. This may be you're only problem. After doing this, try it out and see. If it looked good, and the heater works fine, you should be good. The heater more then likely, draws more amps.You may have a dead short if it trips as soon as it is turned on, or does it run for awhile before it goes down? Let me know the outcome so we can go from there. Sincerely,
