    Were you able to find the solution for this?my apu is doing exactly the same thing.but on mine when it bogs down i just unplug the ac compressor plug let the motor build up speed and plug it back in it works fine.it only does it at start up.

    I really don't know. Looks like related to amount of refrigerant entering compressor. The update was released by Thermo King.
