P16
Compressor 1 (INV) overcurrent alarm
This alarm occurs when current trouble or current detection trouble occur at an inverter frequency
of less than 80 Hz after start (when trouble judgment current is detected in the primary or
secondary current, or when an instantaneous secondary current of 48 A or higher is detected.
There is a strong possibility of a compressor failure.
An alarm occurs for current detection trouble when it is judged that no current is flowing after
start (DCCT is damaged). In this case, the cause is a DCCT failure.
Check the power wiring and connector wiring.
It is possible to resolve this trouble by limiting the maximum frequency.

P22
Fan motor trouble
Fan motor start failure, fan motor Hall IC input failure
Possible causes are a Hall IC input circuit failure and a fan HIC failure.
Check the fan motor wiring, the Hall IC wiring, and the connector connections. If the wiring and
connectors are normal, then check that the capacitor of the Hall IC input circuit is securely
soldered onto the PCB. Also use a tester and measure the resistance between fan HIC power
(HIC+) and ground (HIC–). If there is a short circuit, there is an HIC malfunction.
(–)
Fan circuit on the outdoor unit control PCB
* In the 3-WAY SYSTEM, the fan circuit PCB is integrated with the outdoor unit PCB.
If the fan does not start, the below corrections may be effective.
(1) If there is a fan HIC failure or circuit failure, replace the PCB.
(2) If the fan motor is locked, replace the fan motor.

Turn OFF the power, and check the continuity of "+" and "–" on the fan circuit PCB.
P26
Inverter compressor high-frequency overcurrent alarm
This alarm occurs when current trouble or current detection trouble occurs at an inverter
frequency of 80 Hz or higher after start (when trouble judgment current is detected in the primary
or secondary current, or when an instantaneous secondary current of 48 A or higher is detected).
The detection methods are the same as for P16. However the fact that operation up to high
frequencies is possible does not necessarily mean that a compressor failure is the cause of the
trouble. Start the compressor several times. If alarm P26 occurs every time and alarm P16 does
not occur at all, then the possibility of a compressor failure is low.
Check the power wiring and connector wiring.
It is possible to resolve this trouble by limiting the maximum frequency.
