Refrigerant shortage trouble
Abnormal points and detection methods
Causes and checkpoints
(1) When all of the following conditions have been satisfied for 15
consecutive minutes:
1. The compressor is operating in HEAT mode.
2. Discharge super heat is 80 [144°F] or more.
3. Difference between TH7 and the TH3 applies to the formula of
(TH7−TH3 < 5 [9°F]).
4.The saturation temperature converted from a high pressure sensor
detects below 35 [95°F].
(2) When all of the following conditions are satisfied:
1.The compressor is in operation.
2.When cooling, discharge superheat is 80 [144°F] or more, and the
saturation temperature converted from a high pressure sensor is over
−40 [−40°F].
3. When heating, discharge superheat is 90 [162°F] or more.

Indoor LEV performance failure
Gas leakage or shortage
Defective 63HS
TH3 : Thermistor <Outdoor liquid pipe>
TH7 : Thermistor <Ambient>

●Diagnosis of defects
Make sure to turn the power OFF before connecting/disconnecting any connectors, or replacing boards.

Is the outdoor stop valve (ball
valve) fully open?
Is there a refrigerant leak?
Is 5104 displayed when restarted?
Is there any abnormality on
connectors such as disconnection,
half-disconnection or breakage?
Refer to the diagnosis of check code 5104.
Check relevant thermistor wirings and
connector contacts of the controller
boards.
Disconnect the thermistor wiring and check
the resistance.
Open the stop valve (ball valve) fully.
Repair the refrigerant leak.
Connect the connector properly.
(Repair or replace it in case of breakage.)
