17.5.38 Outdoor Air Temperature Sensor Abnormality (F36)
Malfunction Decision Conditions:
During startup and operation of cooling and heating, the temperatures detected by the outdoor air temperature
sensor are used to determine sensor error.
Malfunction Caused:
1 Faulty connector connection.
2 Faulty sensor.
3 Faulty outdoor unit PCB (main).
Abnormality Judgment:
Continue for 5 seconds.
Troubleshooting:
For safety reason and to prevent component breakdown,

Check the CN-TH1 connector connnection:
- Turn OFF the power
- Check the connector connection
- Connector poor contact
- Correct the connection
- Defect in outdoor air temperature
sensor
- Replace the outdoor air
temperature sensor
- Defect in outdoor unit PCB (main)
- Replace the outdoor unit PCB (main)
Check the outdoor air temperature sensor:
- Plug out connector from the outdoor unit PCB (main)
- Measure the resistance of the outdoor air
temperature sensor
Is the CN-TH1 connector
connection normal?
Is the measured resistance of the
outdoor air temperature sensor
matches the value specified in its
characteristic chart?
