Troubleshooting Method - Toshiba MMD-UP0481HFP-UL Service Manual

10-2. Troubleshooting method

The remote controllers (main remote controller and central control device) and the interface P.C. board of an
outdoor unit are provided with an a 7-segment display (outdoor interface P.C. board) to display operational
status. Using this self-diagnosis feature, the trouble site / trouble part may be identified in the event of a
trouble by following the method described below.
The list below summarizes check codes detected by various devices. Analyze the check code according to
where it is displayed and work out the nature of the trouble in consultation with the list.
• When investigating a trouble on the basis of a display provided on the indoor remote controller or central
control device - See the "central control device or main remote controller display" section of the list.
• When investigating a trouble on the basis of a display provided on an outdoor unit - See the "Outdoor 7-
segment display" section of the list.
• When investigating a trouble on the basis of a wireless remote controller-controlled indoor unit - See the
"Indicator light block" section of the list.

Description of check code
Communication from remote controller or network adaptor
has been lost (so has central control communication).
Signals are not being received from outdoor unit.
Indoor unit detects address identical to its own.
Communication trouble between main MCU and the motor
microcomputer MCU
Communication check code between Application control
kit and indoor unit P.C. board
Periodic communication between indoor header and
follower units cannot be maintained.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TCJ) has been open
/ short-circuit.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TC2) has been open
/ short-circuit.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TC1) has been open
/ short-circuit.
sensor (TA) Ambient temperature sensor (TA) has been open /
short-circuit.
Discharge temperature sensor (TF) has been open /
short-circuit.
Indoor EEPROM is abnormal (some other trouble may be
detected).
Occupancy sensor trouble has been detected.
There is more than one header unit in group.
There is at least one a single indoor unit to which group
control cable is connected.
Address setting has not been performed for one or more
indoor units (also detected at outdoor unit end).
Capacity setting has not been performed for indoor unit.
Unit shutdown has been caused by external check code
input (CN80).
Indoor AC fan check code is detected (activation of fan
motor thermal relay).
Float switch has been activated.
• Indoor DC fan check code (e.g. overcurrent or lock-up)
is detected.
Follower unit cannot be operated due to header unit alarm
(E03 /L03 / L07 / L08).
