After a thunder storm my roof mounted Carrier cooling/heating unit stopped working and now does nothing. Changed the time delay fuses and checked the circuit breakers and they seem fine. Is there a reset button on the unit itself?

Hi,
You may have a circuit board problem. Make sure you have power to the unit first. If you can, get on the roof take the access panel off to the electrical components. Most carrier circ boards have a flashing light display on the board itself. On the back of the panel you just took off should be a kiosk that tells you what the flashing means. If the light is dead, no color but you are sure there is power to the unit, the board is bad or there could be a fuse blown on the board. Most circ board fuses are a small 3 or 5 amp blade fuse mounted right on the circ board. I have seen many a carrier board burn out because of lightning. I hope this is not the case for you, as carrier boards are just a little expensive. Hope this helps you get some air back. Mark

Hello I have carrier v roof top heat pump with furnace unit but one morning stop working and green light 7 times brink please help me any solve problem thank you.

As you may know, heat pumps will not work in extreme cold outdoor ambience temp. It is why the aux heat is there as a supplement.
7 blinks indicates a furnace roll out switch problem. Lack of airflow, lack of combustion exhaust flow, switch fatigue, clog on air filters. The roll out switch senses fire overheating the heat exchanger box and if the temp exceeds the switch (thermal switch) operating temp, then the switch activates and stops the fire and triggers the alarm.

PHKJ048-1 outdoor fan stopped

This is nothing but a bad fan motor. Probably caused by rain down pouring off the roof into the unit. Try adding channel diverters that diverts water (a lip on the edge of the roof) >!

Dometic air & analog thermostat control kit

Had one doing similar recently, and after a thunder & lightning storm. Nothing worked, but kept blowing 2 amp fuse in thermostat, when anything tried, heat or cool. Pulled plastic control box down from inside upper unit (AC) made sure breaker was off, took of plastic cover and smelled inside, and could smell burnt plastic smell. Replaced, control box, that got fan only working. Tried another thermostat , everything worked as it should. Turns out the lightning, or power surge, or whatever, shorted out the thermostat, and control box at same time.

Carrier ac unit

This appears to be a Roof Top packaged unit. You will definitely need some help with this install. Your local Carrier distributer should have the installation curb kits and economizer etc.

Here is the most technical data I can find for this unit. Under the 50TFF section you will see the accessory dimensions. I hope this helps. (You will need adobe acrobat to read the file)
