The IGBT driver PCB (Part Numbers – 38014, 38052 and 31486) could have the plugs wired
inconsistently. There are two driver PCB’s in each model listed above. If replacing only one driver
PCB be sure the plug wire sequence matches the driver PCB already in the unit. If in doubt replace
both driver PCB’s with recent manufactured replacement parts.

Check to be sure that:

1. Terminal #1 on the PCB is wired (white) to plug pin #4

2. Terminal #2 on the PCB is wired (red) to plug pin #3

3. Terminal #3 on the PCB is wired (red) to plug pin #2

4. Terminal #4 on the PCB is wired (white) to plug pin #1

Note
Plug pin #1 is identified by a triangle positioned over the pin.
Terminal #1 is etched on the PCB.
