LPS

Lockout

Low pressure / freeze

Suction dropped out — charge, indoor airflow, or TXV.

Walk LPS in Diagnose

2 plates — walk the one on the cabinet

First check

1 Airflow and freeze before you add gas

On Amana ALXT7C low pressure / freeze is indoor airflow or a starved coil until proven otherwise. Filter, blower, dirty A-coil, closed supplies. In heat mode, a iced outdoor coil is the same family. Indoor filter, blower, coil freeze. Do not add gas on a frozen coil.

Expect: Indoor air moving. Coil not iced. OD coil clear in heat.

The rest of the walkthrough is Diagnose.

On the plates

  • Indoor filter, blower, coil freeze. Do not add gas on a frozen coil.
  • TXV / restriction. Weigh-out if the history is a leak.
  • Low ambient and wind can nuisance-trip LPS on a light load — still prove charge.

Plates that use LPS

Same number, other makers

LPS on Amana is not the same code on these plates.
