Is sensor connected
to PCB correctly??
Is sensor value correct?*
Connect sensor to PCB correctly
Replace sensor
Replace corresponding
outdoor unit PCB
Yes
No
No
Yes
* If value is 100kΩ ↑(open) or 100Ω ↓(short), error occurs
NB: Resistance value of temperature sensor change according to
temperature
It is normal if value shown as below (±5% error)
Sensor of air temperature: 10°C = 20.7kΩ : 25°C= 10kΩ : 50°C= 3.4kΩ
Sensor of piping temperature: 10°C = 10kΩ : 25°C= 5Ωk : 50°C= 1.8kΩ
