1. Applicable model
All models
2. Error detection method
Detection of anomalously low
temperature (resistance) on
outdoor air temperature sensor
3. Condition of error displayed
• When the temperature sensor
detects -45(-55)°C or lower for
5 seconds continuously within 2
minutes to 2 minutes 20 seconds
after the compressor ON, the
compressor stops. After 3-minute
delay, the compressor starts again
automatically, but if this anomalous
temperature is detected 3 times
within 40 minutes.
• When -45(-55)°C or lower is detected
for 5 seconds continuously within 20
seconds after compressor ON
Note Value in ( ) are for the model
FDC100VNP-W.
4. Presumable cause
• Defective outdoor unit control
(or main) PCB
• Broken sensor harness or
temperature sensing section
(Check molding.)
• Disconnected wire connection
(connector)
