ERROR CODES:
TABLE 16. Outdoor Control 7-Segment Display Alert Codes - Outdoor Control Errors
NOTE - System fault and lockout codes take precedence over system status codes (cooling, heating operating percentages or defrost/dehumidifi-
cation). Only the latest active fault or lockout codes are displayed (if present). If no fault or lockout codes are active, then system status codes are
displayed. Alert codes are also displayed on the S30/S40 thermostat.

Unit Sensor Operation, Checkout and Status /Error Codes
OPERATION:
6-Pin Sensor Harness (DIS, AMB, COIL)
There is no sensor located on positions 5 and 6 of the connector. A 10K Ohm resistor installed between pins 5 and 6 on
the cable harness provides continuity for this circuit.
Ambient temperatures, as read by the ambient temperature sensor connected to pin 3 and pin 4, which are below -35°F
(-37°C) or above 120°F (48°C) trigger a fault condition. If the ambient sensor is open, shorted, or out of the temperature
range of the sensor, the control displays the appropriate alert code. Heating and cooling operation is allowed in this fault
condition
There is no sensor located on position 1 to position 2 of the connector. A 10K ohm resistor is installed between pins 1 and
2 on the cable harness and provides continuity for this circuit.
4-Pin Suction Temperature Sensor / Liquid Temperature Sensor Harness
Suction line temperature is read by the suction line temperature sensor between Pins 1 and Pin 2 of the 4-pin sensor
harness. Nominal Resistance of the sensor is 10K ohms at 77F. The control will display are E182 error code if the sensor
reads open or shorted for 24 hours. Cooling operation is allowed with this fault.
Liquid line temperature is read by the liquid line temperature sensor between Pins 3 and Pin 4 of the 4-pin sensor harness.
Nominal Resistance of the sensor is 10K ohms at 77F. The control will display are E184 error code if the sensor reads
open or shorted for 24 hours. Cooling operation is allowed with this fault.
Alarm Description
Equipment is unable to communicate. Indicates numerous message errors. In most cases
errors are related to electrical noise. Make sure high voltage power is separated from
RSBus. Check for miswired and/or loose connections between the stat, indoor unit and
outdoor unit. Check for a high voltage source of noise close to the system. Fault clears after
communication is restored.
Typically, this alarm/code does not cause any issues and will clear on its own. The alarm /
code is usually caused by a delay in the outdoor unit responding to the thermostat. Check all
wiring connections. Cleared after unresponsive device responds to any inquiry.
Equipment lost communication with the thermostat. Check the wiring connections, ohm wires
and cycle power. The alarm stops all associated HVAC operations and waits for a heartbeat
message from the unit that's not communicating. The alarm / fault clears after communication
is re-established.
There is a control hardware problem. Replace the outdoor control if the problem prevents
operation and is persistent. The alarm / fault is cleared 300 seconds after the fault recovers
Reconfigure the system. Replace the control if heating or cooling is not available.
Replace outdoor control.
