Error code
E28
Remote control:
1. Applicable model
All models
2. Error detection method
Detection of anomalously low
temperature (resistance) of
remote control temperature
thermistor (Thc)
3. Condition of error displayed
When the temperature thermistor
detects -50°C or lower for
5 seconds continuously,
the compressor stops. After
3-minutes delay, the compressor
starts again automatically, but
if this error occurs again within
60 minutes after the initial
detection.
4. Presumable cause
• Faulty connection of remote
control temperature thermistor
• Defective remote control
temperature thermistor
• Defective remote control PCB
Note:
After 10 seconds has passed since remote control thermistor was switched from valid to invalid, E28 will not be displayed even if the thermistor
harness is disconnected. At same time the thermistor, which is effective, is switched from remote control thermistor to indoor return air temperature
thermistor. Even though the remote control thermistor is set to be Effective, the return air temperature displayed on remote control for checking
still shows the value detected by indoor return air temperature thermistor, not by remote control temperature thermistor.
