Alarm code
24
Abnormal operation of the thermistor for the outdoor unit heat exchanger liquid pipe (Te/
Tchg).
•
The RUN indicator flashes and the ALARM indication is displayed on the remote control switch.
•
The unit no., the alarm code and the unit code are alternatively displayed in the temperature setting section and the unit
no. and alarm code are displayed on the outdoor unit's PCB1 display.
If an anomaly is detected in the thermistor, check the thermistors as follows:
* This alarm is indicated when the thermistor is short-circuited (less than 0.2 kΩ) or cut (greater than 840 kΩ) for eight
minutes during operation.
* These thermistors are installed as shown in the following figure.

Are thermistors connected to
THM10 (Te) or THM17 (Tchg)
on PCB1?
Is resistance of the
thermistor between
0.2k
Ω
and 500k
Ω
?
Refer to "Alarm Code 11"
for thermistor resistance.
If this thermistor is faulty, this alarm is indicated.
