- In this excerpt, we go over an interesting way to troubleshoot a compressor that isn't running. We use what we've learned about inputs, outputs, and algorithms to figure out how the compressor is controlled.

So what goes in must come out?
Not sure what you mean. Suppose the computer is looking for a particular DC voltage drop, something less than 5 VDC, across a thermistor before it sends out 120 VAC to a load. The board is switching out a 120 VAC supply based on a specific DC input it's reading from a sensor. So in this common case, what goes in does not go out.
@@AppliantologyOrg I thought all electrical would be if you have power in you have to have power out to the loads and switches. Especially if there is a control board.
@robertmunguia250 Remember we’re dealing with a computer (a software algorithm) which can be programmed to look for various conditions (inputs) before giving an output. Hence the thermistor example I posted. So you also have to know what kind of input the computer is looking for. It’s not as simple as “what goes in must come out.”
