Serial communication error
1
Abnormal if serial communication
between outdoor controller circuit
board and outdoor power circuit board
is defective.
1
Breaking of wire or contact
failure of connector CN2
between the outdoor controller
circuit board and the outdoor
power circuit board
2
Breaking of wire or contact
failure of connector CN4
between the outdoor controller
circuit board and the outdoor
power circuit board
3
Defective communication circuit
of outdoor power circuit board
4
Defective communication circuit
of outdoor controller circuit board
for outdoor power circuit board
12
Check connection of each connector CN2
and CN4 between the outdoor controller
circuit board and the outdoor power circuit
board.
3
Replace outdoor power circuit board.
4
Replace outdoor controller circuit board.
1
Breaking of wire or contact
failure of connector between
outdoor controller circuit board
and M-NET board
2
Contact failure of M-NET board
power supply line
3
Noise has entered into M-NET
transmission wire.
2
Abnormal if communication between
outdoor controller circuit board and
M-NET board is not available.
1
Check disconnection, looseness, or breaking of
connection wire between outdoor controller cir-
cuit board (CNMNT) and M-NET board (CN5).
2
Check disconnection, looseness, or breaking of
connection wire between outdoor controller cir-
cuit board (CNMNT) and M-NET board (CND).
3
Check M-NET transmission wiring method.
P8
1
Slight temperature difference
between indoor room
temperature and pipe <liquid
or condenser / evaporator>
temperature thermistor
• Shortage of refrigerant
• Disconnected holder of pipe
<liquid or condenser /
evaporator> thermistor
• Defective refrigerant circuit
2
Converse connection of
extension pipe (on plural units
connection)
3
Converse wiring of indoor/
outdoor unit connecting wire
(on plural units connection)
4
Defective detection of indoor
room temperature and pipe
<condenser / evaporator>
temperature thermistor
5
Stop valve is not opened
completely.
Pipe temperature
<Cooling mode>
Detected as abnormal when the pipe tem-
perature is not in the cooling range 3 min-
utes after compressor start and 6 minutes
after the liquid or condenser/evaporator pipe
is out of cooling range.
Note 1) It takes at least 9 minutes to detect.
Note 2) Abnormality P8 is not detected in
drying mode.
Cooling range : Indoor pipe temperature
(TH2 or TH5) – intake temperature
(TH1)
[
-3 deg
TH: Lower temperature between liquid pipe
temperature and condenser/
evaporator temperature
<Heating mode>
When 10 seconds have passed after the
compressor starts operation and the hot
adjustment mode has finished, the unit is
detected as abnormal when condenser/
evaporator pipe temperature is not in heat-
ing range within 20 minutes.
Note 3) It takes at least 27 minutes to
detect abnormality.
Note 4) It excludes the period of defrosting
(Detection restarts when defrosting
mode is over)
Heating range : 3 deg

(Condenser/
Evaporator temperature(TH5) –
intake temperature(TH1))

4
Check pipe <liquid or condenser /
evaporator> temperature with room
temperature display on remote
controller and outdoor controller circuit
board.
Pipe <liquid or condenser / evaporator>
temperature display is indicated by
setting SW2 of outdoor controller circuit
board as follows.
23
Check converse connection of extension
pipe or converse wiring of indoor/outdoor
unit connecting wire.
Conduct temperature check with outdoor
controller circuit board after connecting
‘A-Control Service Tool (PAC-SK52ST)’.

PL
Abnormal refrigerant circuit
During Cooling, Dry, or Auto Cooling
operation, when the following are
regarded as failures when detected for
one second.
a) The compressor continues to run for 30
or more seconds.
b) The liquid pipe temperature or the
condense/evaporator temperature is
75°C or more.
* These detected errors will not be
cancelled until the power source is reset.
1
Abnormal operation of 4-way
valve
2
Disconnection of or leakage in
refrigerant pipes
3
Air into refrigerant piping
4
Abnormal operation (no rotation)
of indoor fan
· Defective fan motor.
· Defective indoor control
board.
5
Defective refrigerant circuit
(clogging)
1
When this error occurs, be sure to
replace the 4-way valve.
2
Check refrigerant pipes for disconnection or
leakage.
3
After the recovery of refrigerant, vacuum
dry the whole refrigerant circuit.
4
Refer to section 10-6 HOW TO CHECK
THE PARTS.
5
Check refrigerant circuit for operation.
* To avoid entry of moisture or air into
refrigerant circuit which could cause
abnormal high pressure, purge air in
refrigerant circuit or replace refrigerant.
