Cosmo F1 error code

What it means

F1 is in TOSOT Direct's temperature sensor malfunction group. The unit may stop because it cannot trust a temperature reading needed for safe control.

Urgency

Likely causes

1. Faulty temperature sensor
2. Disconnected sensor plug
3. Open or shorted sensor wiring
4. Indoor control board sensor input fault

Homeowner fix

Turn the system off for 10 minutes, then restart once. Do not open the indoor unit or replace sensors yourself.

When to call a pro

Call a licensed HVAC technician if F1 returns after one reset or the unit will not heat or cool normally.

Repair vs replace

Sensor repairs are usually less costly than replacing the system unless board failure or several major faults are also present.
