Is the
connector of faulty
thermistor connected
properly?
Are the
characteristics of
thermistor
OK?*1

Check several times the temperature-resistance characteristics of
thermistor to prove any poor connection.

Check and save the data of
operating condition.
Check the conditions whether
it occurs immediately after the
power on or during operation
or stopping.
Check the sensed value.
Compare the temperature
on Mente PC with actual
measured value.
Insert the connector firmly
Replace ambient air

.
Condition of error displayed
• if -30°C is detected for 5
seconds within 2-minutes to
2-minutes 20-seconds after
the compressor ON and if this
anomaly occurs 3 times within
40 minutes after the initial
detection.
• If this anomaly occurs 1 time
within 20 seconds after power
ON.
4. Presumable cause
• Disconnection of the
thermistor harness or the
internal wire of sensing part
(Check the molded part)
• Disconnection of the
thermistor connector
• Defective outdoor control
