ICP Control Board for RHS183H0AA0AAAA — OEM Defrost Board Kit | Ships Today

Overview

This is the genuine OEM control board kit (part number 1183618) for the ICP Tempstar Heil RHS183H0AA0AAAA heat pump system. The control board is the brain of the outdoor unit, managing the defrost cycle, reversing valve operation, compressor staging, and fan timing. When this board fails, the system may stop heating or cooling, fail to defrost in winter, short-cycle, or stop responding to thermostat calls entirely. It operates on a 24V control circuit and ships as a complete replacement kit.
