Possible Cause(s)
No power (24V) to board terminals R
and C or board failure.
Unit operating normally or in standby
mode.
Initial power up, safety trip, end of
room thermostat demand.
Sensor being detected open or shorted or out of temperature range. Board will revert to time/
temperature defrost operation. (System will still heat or cool).
Sensor being detected open or shorted or out of temperature range. Board will not perform
demand or time/temperature defrost operation. (System will still heat or cool).
Indicates that board has internal component failure. Cycle 24 volt power to board. If code does
not clear, replace board.
(Each fault adds 1 strike to that code's counter; 5 strikes per code = LOCKOUT)
1
Restricted air flow over indoor or
outdoor coil.
2
Improper refrigerant charge in
system.
3
Improper metering device installed or
incorrect operation of metering
device.
4
Incorrect or improper sensor location
or connection to system.
This model does not have a defrost line sensor, therefore this code is not applicable.
The XP14 series units does not use a defrost line sensor. However, a resistor is installed
across pins P4-1 and P4-2. If the resistor is missing or damage then this fault code will be
displayed.
This model does not have a defrost line sensor, therefore this code is not applicable.

Solution
1
Check control transformer power (24V).
2
If power is available to board and LED(s) do not
light, replace board.
None required.
None required (Jumper TEST pins to override)
1
Remove any blockages or restrictions from coils
and/or fans. Check indoor and outdoor fan motor for
proper current draws.
2
Check system charge using approach and subcool­
ing temperatures.
3
Check system operating pressures and compare to
unit charging charts.
4
Make sure all pressure switches and sensors have
secure connections to system to prevent refrigerant
leaks or errors in pressure and temperature mea­
surements.
