Full Diagnosis
Compressor Scroll Temp Out of Range Event. Compressor scroll temperature is out of range.
All Recorded Causes
Check refrigerant charge and system pressures. Inspect for restricted airflow on indoor or outdoor coil. Verify compressor scroll temperature sensor wiring. Check compressor discharge temperature. Board retries after 15 minutes.
Verify Before Replacing Parts
- Confirm the exact Bryant model family and air conditioners context before acting on a generic code description.
- Verify airflow first, then confirm operating pressures and temperature relationship before adjusting charge, since check refrigerant charge and system pressures.
- Look for restrictions, iced coils, or dirty heat-transfer surfaces that can mimic a charge problem, and separately confirm inspect for restricted airflow on indoor or outdoor coil.
- After the correction, run the system long enough to confirm the air conditioners fault does not return under normal load.
