Pressure switches are the most misdiagnosed component in HVACR service calls. This field guide covers how pressure switches work, the four real failure modes (diaphragm fatigue, condensate ingestion, hose deterioration, and contact failure), the correct diagnostic sequence, and brand-specific patterns for Cleveland Controls, Dwyer, Nordyne, and Daikin-McQuay equipment.
