15.5.10 H28 (Outdoor Pipe Temperature Sensor Abnormality)
Malfunction Decision Conditions

During startup and operation of cooling and heating, the temperatures detected by the outdoor pipe temperature
sensor are used to determine sensor errors.
Malfunction Caused

Faulty connector connection.

Faulty sensor.

Faulty PCB.
Troubleshooting
When abnormality indication starts again
Check the connector connection:
● Turn off the power
● Check the connector connection
Is the connector connection normal?
Check the outdoor heat exchanger temperature sensor:
● Plug out connector from t he outdoor unit PCB
● Measure the resistance of the outdoor heat exchanger
temperature sensor
Is the measured resistance of the outdoor heat exchanger
temperature sensor matches the value specified in its
characteristic chart?
