LED2 on FTC3 is blink-
ing.
When LED1 on FTC3 is also blinking.
Check FTC3/outdoor unit connecting wire for connection failure.
Connection failure of FTC3/outdoor unit
connecting wire
When LED1 on FTC3 is lit.
1. Miswiring of main controller wires
Multiple indoor units have been wired to 1
outdoor unit.
1.
Check the connection of main controller wires.
Only 1 indoor unit should be wired to 1 outdoor unit.
Supplementary indoor units should each be wired to a separate outdoor unit.
2. Miss-setting of refrigerant address for
outdoor unit
(Outdoor unit refrigerant address should be
set to "0")
2.
Recheck the refrigerant address setting on the outdoor unit.
Set the refrigerant address to “0”.
(Set refrigerant address using SW1(3~6) on outdoor controller
circuit board.)
3. Short-circuit of main controller wires
3, 4.
4. Defective main controller
Remove main controller wires and check LED2 on FTC3.
• If LED2 is blinking check the main controller wires are not short circuiting.
• If LED2 is lit, connect main controller wires again and:
- if LED2 is blinking, main controller is defective;
- if LED2 is lit, connection failure of main controller terminal block etc. has
returned to normal.

No water at hot tap.
1. Cold main off
1.
Check and open stop cock.
2. Strainer (
fi
eld supply) blocked.
2.
Isolate water supply and clean strainer.
7
Cold water at tap.
1. All hot water used.
1.
Ensure DHW mode is operating and wait for tank to re-heat.
2. Prohibit, schedule timer or holiday mode
selected.
2.
Check settings and change as appropriate.
3. Heat pump not working.
3.
Check heat pump – consult outdoor unit service manual.
4. Booster heater cut out has triggered.
4.
Check booster heater thermostat and press reset button if safe.
Reset button is covered with white rubber cap see component parts diagram
section 10-6. for position.
5. Booster heater breaker (ECB1) has tripped.
5.
Check the cause of the trip and reset if safe.
6. The booster heater thermal cut-out has
operated and can not be reset using the
manual reset button.
6.
Check the resistance of the thermal cut out, if open then the connection is
broken and the booster heater will have to be replaced.
Please contact your Mitsubishi Electric dealer.
7. Immersion heater cut out has triggered.
7.
Check immersion heater thermostat and press reset button,
located on immersion heater boss, if safe. If the heater has been operated
with no water inside it may have failed, so please replace it with a new one.
8. Immersion heater breaker (ECB2) has tripped.
8.
Check the cause of the trip and reset if safe.
9. 3-way valve (2-way valve) (field supply)
fault
9.
Check plumbing/wiring to 3-way valve (2-way valve) (
fi
eld supply).

It takes long for water
to boil.
1. Heat pump not working.
1.
Check heat pump – consult outdoor unit service manual.
2. Booster heater cut out has triggered.
2.
Check booster heater thermostat and press reset button if safe.
Reset button is covered with white rubber cap see component parts diagram
section 10-6. for position.
3. Booster heater breaker (ECB1) has tripped.
3.
Check the cause of the trip and reset if safe.
4. The booster heater thermal cut-out has
operated and can not be reset using the
manual reset button.
4.
Check the resistance of the thermal cut out, if open then the connection is
broken and the booster heater will have to be replaced.
Please contact your Mitsubishi Electric dealer.
5. Immersion heater cut out has triggered.
5.

located on immersion heater boss, if safe. If the heater has been operated
with no water inside it may have failed, so please replace it with a new one.
6. Immersion heater breaker (ECB2) has tripped.
6.
Check the cause of the trip and reset if safe.

Water in tank is not
used, but the water
tempearature of the
tank decreases.
The water temperature decreases to a certain
degree as the tank heat radiates when DHW
or Heating opeartion is not running. If the
temperature decreases excessively and boiling
occurs frequently, check for the following.
1.
Water leakage through the pipes that
connect to the tank
1.
Take the following measures.
• Retighten the nuts holding the pipes onto the tank.
• Replace seal materials.
• Replace the pipes.
2.
Peeling off of insulation
2.
Reattach insulation.
3.
3-way valve (2-way valve) (field supply)
fault
3.
Check plumbing/wiring to 3-way valve (2-way valve) (
fi
eld supply).
10 Hot or warm water from
cold tap.
If tap runs cold after a minute or so the pipe is
picking up heat from heating pipe work.
Insulate/re-route pipe work.
11 Water Leak
1. Poorly sealed connections on water circuit
parts
1.
Tighten connections as required.
2. Water circuit components are approaching
limit of the usable life.
2.
Refer to PARTS CATALOG for expected part lifetimes and replace as
necessary.
