TROUBLESHOOTING
“RUN” light flickers and “ALARM” is indicated on the remote control switch.
The unit No., alarm code and the unit code is alternately indicated on the set temperature section, or
the unit No. and alarm code are indicated on the display of the outdoor unit PCB. (*1)
If abnormality with the thermistor is found, check all the thermistors as shown below.
This alarm code is indicated when the thermistor is short-circuited (less than 0.9 k
Ω
) or cut (greater
than 2,350 k
Ω
) during running.
