connectors, or parts may be damaged.
Check for the conditions of
mounting of the temperature
sensors of the outdoor air
thermistor, the heat exchanger
thermistor, and liquid pipe
thermistor to the piping.
Are the temperature
sensors properly
mounted?
YES
Disconnect the outdoor air
thermistor, the heat exchanger
thermistor, and liquid pipe
thermistor from the outdoor
unit main PCB, and then make
measurement of resistance
using a multimeter.

Properly connect the thermistors,
and then operate the system.
Replace the abnormal thermistors,
and then operate the system.
