TROUBLESHOOTING OUTDOOR UNIT ERROR CODES
41 E41 LOW REFRIGERANT The control has detected a low refrigerant condition.
● Refrigerant leak
● Low refrigerant charge
● Test for system leaks using leak test procedure
● Check refrigerant charge level; Adjust if needed
42 E42 LOW LINE VOLT
Control detects a low power supply voltage
condition.
● Low line voltage supply
● Check circuit breakers and fuses; Replac e if
needed
● Verify unit is connected to power supply as
specified on rating plate
● Correct low line voltage condition; Contact local
utility if needed
43 E43 HIGH LINE VOLT
Control detects a high power supply voltage
condition.
● High line voltage supply
● Verify unit is connected to power supply as
specified on rating plate
● Correct high line voltage condition; Contact local
utility if needed
44 E44 OP TEMP RANGE
The control detects the outdoor temperature
outside recommended operational range. Unit may
continue to operate normally.
● Ambient air conditions too high or low
● Cycle power; re-try during usable ambient
temperature range
45 E45 NO COOLING TEST
The cont rol is unable to start the Cooling mode test
becaus e indoor heat has been turned on by
thermostat. Please set thermos tat to off position.
● Heat provided by secondary heating source
● Turn off heater using thermostat before running
AHRI mode
47 E47 NO SYS VER TEST
The cont rol is unable to start the System
Verification test because indoor heat has been
turned on by thermostat. Please set thermostat to
off pos ition.
● Heat provided by secondary heating source
● Turn off heater using thermostat before
operation

circuit (potential restriction in line or low refrigerant) (2-4
ton only)
● Stop valve not c ompletely open (2-4 ton only)
● Cycle power; re-try during usable ambient
temperature range
● Verify cooling bracket screws in place and
secure; Secure fasteners as needed (2-4 ton only)
● Check thermal grease inside cooling bracket on
control board; Apply additional grease as needed
● Check outdoor fan motor & wiring;
Repair/replace if needed (5 ton only)
● Check for restriction in line
● Check refrigerant charge level; Adjust if needed
(2-4 ton only)
● Check the opening of stop valve, should be full
open; Repair/replace if needed (2-4 ton only)
33 - HI TEMP CTRL2
This error indicates the equipment is ex periencing
high temperature faults on the outdoor control
board. Control has determined continued operation
is acceptable. This indicates they may be a
problem with the equipment.

circuit (potential restriction in line or low refrigerant) (2-4
ton only)
● Stop valve not c ompletely open (2-4 ton only)
● Cycle power; re-try during usable ambient
temperature range
● Verify cooling bracket screws in place and
secure; Secure fasteners as needed (2-4 ton only)
● Check thermal grease inside cooling bracket on
control board; Apply additional grease as needed
● Check outdoor fan motor & wiring;
Repair/replace if needed (5 ton only)
● Check for restriction in line
● Check refrigerant charge level; Adjust if needed
(2-4 ton only)
● Check the opening of stop valve, should be full
open; Repair/replace if needed (2-4 ton only)
34 E34 CURRENT SPIKE
Board detected a high current condition. This
indicates the potential for a short circuit.
● Current spike in supply
● Stop valve not completely open
● The compressor wire is lost phase
● Faulty control board
● Faulty compressor
● Check power supply for in-rush current during
start-up or steady state operation
● Check the opening of stop valve, should be full
open; Repair/replace if needed
● Check the wire between control board and
compressor
● Replace control board if nec essary
● Check the compressor; Repair/replace if needed
35 E35 HIGH CURRENT Board det ected a high current condition.
● Short circuit condition
● Stop valve not completely open
● Overcharge
● Faulty control board
● Faulty compressor
● Check installation clearances.
● Check the opening of stop valve, should be full
open; Repair/replace if needed
● Check refrigerant charge level; Adjust if needed
● Replace control board if nec essary
● Check the compressor; Repair/replace if
needed.
36 E36 STARTUP ERROR
The control encountered an abnormal condition
during the startup procedure.
● Blocked/ restricted condenser coil and/or lines
● The compressor wire is lost phase
● Inconsistent compressor load
● Faulty control board
● Check and clean condenser coil and/or lines
