York RTU no power
No power to the unit i do light maintenance on 23 units filters fuses cleaning. But if i can i try to not call a company if i can fix it. Fuses are good, will a bad run capacitor keep power from the board so no led is blinking?

Welcome to the forums.
Is this 480vAC equipment ?
If yes..... you need to be using an arc suppression face shield.
You should also be using nothing but a name brand meter...... preferably a Fluke or equivalent.
480 is dangerous stuff and I've seen "run of the mill meters" blow up. It's not pretty.
You need to confirm you have all three phases. L1 - L2 - L3.
I labeled the two transformers for discussion. You need to check for what should be 24vAC output.

you have no business working on that unit but as others have said that is a 3 phase unit and probably 460V.
do you have line voltage on L1 L2 & L3 or do you not have control V. there should be a control fuse on the control board check for control V look at your wiring diagram check both of your transformers for power in and out

Hmm
Thanks for the demeaning posts guys, i was not looking to self teach or work on the unit. I asked a simple question if the run capacitors would cause no power, which no one answered. Since this could be a simple swap out to check. So i guess ill just go ahead and try it myself.
