E48 Outdoor Fan Motor Anomaly - Mitsubishi Heavy Industries FDT100VNP1VF2 Technical Manual

Error code
Remote control: E48
1. Applicable model
All models
2. Error detection method
Detected by rotation speed of
outdoor fan motor
3. Condition of error displayed
When actual rotation speed
of outdoor fan motor drops to
-1
75min or lower for 30 minutes
continuously, the compressor
and the outdoor fan motor stop.
After 3-minutes delay, it starts
again automatically, but if this
anomaly occurs 3 times within
60 minutes after the initial
detection.
4. Presumable cause
• Defective outdoor control PCB
• Foreign material at rotational
area of fan propeller
• Defective fan motor
• Dust on outdoor control PCB
• Blown F3 fuse
Note: When E48 error occurs, in almost cases F3 fuse (1A) on the outdoor control PCB is blown. There are a lot of cases that fuse is blown and
E48 occurs due to defective fan motor. And even though only the outdoor control PCB ( or fuse) is replaced,, another trouble could occur.
Therefore when fuse is blown, check whether the fan motor is OK or not.
After confirming the fan motor normal, check by power ON. (Don't power ON without confirming the fan motor normal.)

Countermeasure
Remove foreign matter.
Replace fan motor.
If resistance between ➀
(FG) - ➃ (GND) is detected
1k Ω or lower, it is faulty.
Check power source
NO
voltage.
Replace faulty fan motor
and outdoor main PCB.
Replace fan motor (If
anomaly persists after
replacing fan motor, replace
outdoor control PCB.)
Malfunction by temporary
noise
