  • Faulty compressor wiring

Safe checks for 07

  1. Write down 07. It is the open run circuit, not the start-circuit code 06 and not lockout L7
  2. Techniciancheck the compressor and the wiring. The chart says the fault clears after 1 normal cycle, or by cycling 24 VAC to the control
Safety firstOutdoor units carry line voltage even when the thermostat is off. Switch off the unit's disconnect and breaker before touching anything. Refrigerant, wiring, compressor and control-board work must be done by a licensed HVAC technician.

Capacitors can hold a charge after the power is off. Safety terms.

When to call a pro

Call a licensed HVAC technician. An open run winding is compressor diagnosis, not a homeowner reset.
