What triggers it

Compressor discharge temperature sensor TP sampling voltage is lower than 0.06V or higher than 4.94V.

What to do

  1. Check the connection between the outdoor temperature sensor and the outdoor PCB.
  2. Correct the wiring if the sensor is not properly connected.
  3. Measure the sensor resistance value against the manual's temperature sensor table.
  4. Replace the sensor if the resistance value is not acceptable.
  5. Replace the outdoor main PCB if the sensor resistance is acceptable.

Which systems show it
