Aircon PCB replacement

Printed Circuit boards in an aircon are like the “brains”. PCBs are found in both indoor & outdoor units of an aircon. These perform complicated instructions and execution. Nonetheless, electrical components are subject to wear and tear. The entire PCB must be replaced if there are any non-working aircon components. Since PCBs are found in both indoor & outdoor units of an aircon, both aircon units may face PCB issues. The estimated aircon repair cost for PCB (residential unit) is between $350 to $900.

This is a seemingly simple problem to diagnose. If your aircon compressor is running, but your condenser unit fan is not spinning when you switch to aircon fan mode, it means that the fan motor has malfunctioned.

By using a second hand Aircon fan motor, the price for replacement can be reduced to $150 for a system 1 fan motor unit and up to $400 if you decide to get a new aircon fan motor.

Aircon Thermistor Repairs

Aircon thermistor is a type of temperature sensor that you can find in aircon systems. They detect temperature fluctuations and send a resistance signal to the aircon control module.This is one of the more common type of Aircon repair in Singapore. If the thermistor is defective or corroded, it will not provide the proper signal for the control board to turn the compressor circuit on. This will cause the aircon to blow cold air for a while before the aircon power lights start blinking and blows warm air out. The aircon thermistor repair price in Singapore is usually between $70 to $200 .
