Introduction to Aircon PCB repair
It is a given that household appliances will stop working or get faulty one day since we use them on a daily basis. Today I would like to share with you on one of the most important basic parts of the air conditioner, PCB, also known as Printed circuit board. To give you an insight if you should or should not do Aircon PCB repair in the event that it gets faulty. However, do note that there could be other issues that are causing problems for your Aircon. So for a more thorough check or other forms of Aircon repair. Do give us a call.

Firstly, what does PCB stand for? It stands for printed circuit board. It is an essential part that most electronic appliances rely on as their base. For comparison purpose. It is similar to the ‘motherboard’ in central processing units (CPU). It is this green piece of board that serves as the wiring area for components and conductors. The AC PCB contains copper layers, solder masks, silkscreen data, fiberglass and other composite materials. It is way more complex than it sounds.
Functionality of Aircon PCB
The purpose of the PCB in an air-conditioner is to convey complex messages, data computation and assessment, as well as to perform the output process. As technology advances, the design of the PCB grows to be more complex so as to satisfy the growing demands of energy saving abilities. Additionally, it has also set forth an enhancement in control, enabling the air-conditioner to adjust operation correspondingly to the amount of heat energy it has to remove to maintain the temperature of the room. Of course, the PCB and its elements are subjected to wearing out in the long run, just like any other parts of the air-conditioner. Hence, an Aircon pcb repair involves repairing of these elements.

Aircon Error Code Problem?
Usually, for most Air-conditioners. An error code will appear at the fancoil unit (FCU), the FCU will be blinking. Otherwise, the blinking light could also be found inside the condensing unit. A tell tale sign of PCB issue is when the aircon being unable to start. There is still light coming from the unit. However the flap does not open and there are absolutely no Air coming out. Another possible symptom of a malfunctioned PCB is when the compressor stops running. You can tell when the compressor stops running by listening to the sound at the outdoor unit. It can be quite quiet if the compressor doesn’t run. However, do not mistake it for the fan running instead. If you are still unsure, it would be wiser to call down an experienced Aircon company for Aircon PCB repair.
Is it feasible for Aircon PCB repair?
Thus, in the event that it wears out, would it be advisable to repair your AC PCB? The answer is no, as the process of repairing it is rather long. It requires a skillful technician and many equipment such as the soldering kit which thus, means that it must be left in the workshop for several days, even up to weeks as the PCB must be tested for a duration in order to ensure that it is operational-ready again. You would hence, need to take a few trips down and all of these is definitely very time-consuming. Furthermore, the parts that are repaired are very prone to error as it is entirely based on the skill of the technician doing the soldering. After the troublesome repair, there may still be a possibility that it may malfunction again and it is difficult to determine what is the cause of the error or the parts that were repaired or the other parts of the PCB? Only a trained technician the area of HVAC will be able to tell. Hence, you will bear the burden should your PCB fails again.

Instead of doing an Aircon PCB repair. Most companies, including Silverback Aircon. Do Aircon pcb replacement instead. We usually have a set of PCB for common models. If we suspect that you have a PCB issue. We might even bring the spare parts to standby. Therefore, it makes more sense to replace a PCB . Because it is much faster than Aircon PCB repair. And since air-conditioners are almost a necessity in our lives. It would be important to resolve this issue quick. It is also a safer choice as you would not want to waste your time and money only to realise that the PCB is acting up again.
After establishing that we are going to replace instead of Aircon PCB repair. Now, moving on to buying the PCB. Is it more advisable to use a brand new PCB or a second hand PCB? Naturally, the quality of a brand new PCB would be much better as compared to a second hand one based on one’s perception although a brand new PCB may actually be refurnished from old parts as well. For instance, when a mobile phone company replaces your PCB, it is very likely that they send the parts back to China to repair and end up as a piece in someone else’s phone in other parts of the world. Thus, as ‘new’ as it is, it may still consist of refurbished parts that were technically ‘used’.
Second hand PCB more economical.
First and foremost, you should check your aircon air filter. Air-con filters are important for your well-being and ensuring air is able to pass through your air-conditioning unit. Aircon filters trap everything from large particles like leaves to smaller things like mold and dust, preventing them from reaching your housing unit. Litter stuck in your air-conditioning unit can hinder airflow which prevents air from entering your aircon, which is why your aircon is not cold. If you find your air filter is dirty, replace it with a new one. You should check your filter and have it replaced, if necessary, at least once a month. Having your fan setting on auto can also help to prolong the life of an aircon air filter.

How many types of Aircon pcb board are there?
That depends on the model of the Aircon. For example, in a Daikin Aircon unit. Some model have just one Aircon pcb board. While others may have 2, a control and inverter PCB board. Some Aircon technicians may refer to the Aircon monitor board as a PCB board as well.
Is the price of Aircon pcb board price the most expensive component in the Aircon system?
Not really, the Aircon compressor inside the Aircon condenser is the most expensive component. However, in an inverter Aircon, the PCB board controls so many components. It has the highest rate of failure. So other than the Aircon compressor, the PCB board in the Aircon condenser unit is the most expensive component
Do you sell refurbished Aircon pcb board?
Yes we do. In fact we have a huge collection of second hand Aircon spare parts. The benefit of repairing your Aircon with refurbished Aircon spare parts is that it usually can be done in one trip. And it is much cheaper than that of brand new Aircon spare parts.
