How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power to the indoor unit before working on the louvers.
- Check for obstructions: Remove any objects blocking the louvers and gently move them by hand to feel for binding.
- Inspect linkage: Remove the front cover and check the plastic linkage arms between the motor and louvers. Replace broken parts.
- Test louver motor: In test mode (if available), command louver movement. If the motor does not respond, replace the louver motor.
