LED flashes slowly (Every one second)| AC has an error. Either AC is faulty or the communications between AC and AirTouch 2+ is lost. Call technician to further investigate.
No LED light| No power to the console.
Dampers have no response when turned on or off| Check if LEDs on the main module light up for relevant zones when the zone dampers are being turned On/Off. If Green/Red LEDs are not activated for the respective zone, the main module may be faulty, replace it.If there is response, there might be a faulty cable and the cable would have to be replaced. If the zone is still non- functional then there might be a faulty damper motor.

Check if the cable from touch-pad to the main control module is faulty. If it is a faulty cable, then replace the cable.

Check Grouping and find out if the right zones have been assigned to the right groups and have been turned ON/OFF in Zoning section.
