20 Most Recent Amana PTH123B35AE Air Conditioner Questions & Answers

HI,

Most likely has a freon leak , or a control problem causing heat to turn on, or if you have a heatpump the reversing valve has a problem.

check with thermostat commands from indoor to outdoor.May be your outdoor unit doesn't have command to operate.

is the "cold air" just room temperature air. put it on cooling and see if its colder than the air that is coming out of it when its on heating leave it on for a few mins make sure its cooling to.. it could be the reversing valve not pulling it onto heating if it can cool and not heat.

if its not cooling or heating it could be a few different problems. gas leak ,pcb boards ect.

TURN THERMOSTAT TO OFF AND FAN SWITCH TO ON. IF FAN DOES NOT COME ON THEN IT IS NOT RECEIVING 24 VOLTS. TAKE FRONT COVER OFF THERMOSTAT, THEN THE SUB BASE. YOU SHOULD NOW SEE THE COLORED WIRES CONNECTED TO THE BASE ITSELF. NOW DICONNECT ONLY THE RED AND GREEN WIRES AND TOUCH THEM TOGETHER, THERE MAY BE A SMALL SPARK, BUT HOLD THEM TOGETHER, WAIT FOR THE FAN TO RUN, AND IF IT DOES YOU ARE GETTING 24 VOLTS TO THE THERMOSTAT. REPLACE THE WIRES BACK ONTO THEIR CONNECTORS . NOW CHECK THE FAN SELECTOR SWITCH, THE PLASTIC LEVER. UNDER THE LEVER IS A METAL BALL WITCH WHEN MOVED DROPS IN A SLOT ON THE BOARD. SOMETIMES THE BALL DOES NOT DROP IN PROPERLY AND MAKE THE CONNECTION WITH THE BOARD. IF THIS IS THE CASE, MAKE SURE IT SLIPS IN AND OUT OF THE ON AND OFF SWITCHES EASILY AND CHECK FOR WEAR IN BETWEEN THE TWO HOLES. IF YOU CAN'T SEE A GRAY COLOR BETWEEN THE TWO HOLES , THEN IT'S NOT GETTING 24 VOLTS. IF YOU CAN SEE GRAY BETWEEN THE HOLES, THEN PUT THE SUB BASE BACK ON AND TURN THE SELECTOR SWITCH TO OFF AN ON. IF YOUR FAN DOES'NT WORK AFTER THIS, THEN REPLACE YOUR THERMOSTAT.

I have ran this service call many times. Most every time the control board was bad. Sometimes the knobs were just wore out, but 9 out of 10 the board was bad. Good Luck.

you will have to replace the blower motor

check the wirings.the coils and also the heating element.also check the heating temprature.
also check the power outlet.
connect some where else.
and try to restart it again after five minites.after you unplug the device from the electric outlet.

The important consideration is the rotational speed and adding extra horsepower really doesn't achieve anything because the motor isn't really under 'load' as it would be in say a winch. It is better to stick to OEM Specs https://www.google.com/search?q=amana+80+sse+blower+motor ..

Does the power light come on? If yes, then you can do a reset as below: There is a master switch on the bottom left of the control board. Slide that to 'off' position. Then press the hot and cold switch/key together and then slide the master switch back to 'on'. Please put your response/observation here if that does not work or there is power light as asked on top. Thanks

i'm not familiar with your specific unit but ..sounds like an electronic gas value has gone bad or has a bad connection when that happened to my friend it wasn't that expensive to have it fixed .. BYW it acted like this for a while then stopped working completely

Hi, Please hit the "constant fan" button until the "on" button is removed from your Amana screen. Thank you.
