15.2.3 H15 (Compressor Temperature Sensor Abnormality)
Malfunction Decision Conditions

During startup and operation of cooling and heating, the temperatures detected by the compressor discharge
temperature sensor are used to determine sensor errors.
Malfunction Caused

Faulty connector connection.

Faulty sensor.

Faulty outdoor unit PCB.
Abnormality Judgment:

Continue for 5 seconds.
Troubleshooting
Check the compressor discharge temperature
sensor:
- Plug out connector from the outdoor unit PCB
- Measure the resistance of the compressor
discharge temperature sensor
- Defect in compressor
discharge temperature sensor
- Replace the compressor
discharge temperature sensor
Yes
Is the measured resistance of the
compressor discharge temperature
sensor matches the value specified in
its characteristic chart?
No
Check the CN-DIS connector connection:
- Turn OFF the power
- Check the connector connection
- Connector poor contact
- Correct the connection
No
Is the CN-DIS connector
connection normal?
- Defect in outdoor unit PCB
- Replace the outdoor unit PCB
Yes
For safety reason and to prevent component
breakdown, always switch off the power
before remove and connect the component.
