2. Error detection method
Detection of anomalously low
temperature (resistance) on
the outdoor heat exchanger
temperature sensor
3. Condition of error displayed
• When the temperature sensor
detects -55 °C or lower for 20
seconds continuously within
2 minutes to 2 minutes 20
seconds after the compressor
ON, the compressor stops.
After 3-minutes delay, the
compressor starts again
automatically, but if this
anomalous temperature is
detected 3 times within 40
minutes.
• When -55 °C or lower is
detected for within 20 second
after power ON.
4. Presumable cause
• Defective outdoor main
(control) PCB
• Broken sensor harness or
temperature sensing section
• Disconnected wire connection
(connector)
