■ Error diagnosis and countermeasure flow chart
Is temperature sensor
connector connections
are normal?
Is the value of temperature
sensor resistance normal?*
Check and correct connection
Replace sensor
Replace outdoor unit PCB
Yes
Yes
No
No
* Sensor resistance 100 kΩ over (open) or 100 Ω below (short) will generate error
Note: Temperate sensor resistance vary with temperature, So compare temperature sensor resistance value
according to outdoor unit temperature by referring below table (±5% tolerance)
Air temperature sensor: 10°C(50°F) = 20.7kΩ : 25°C(77°F) = 10kΩ : 50°C(122°F)= 3.4kΩ
Pipe temperature sensor: 10°C(50°F) = 10kΩ : 25°C(77°F) = 5kΩ : 50°C(122°F)= 1.8kΩ
