Error Code Meaning of error code and detection method
Open/short circuit of discharge
temperature thermistor (TH4)
Abnormal if open (3: or less) or short
(217: or more) is detected during
U3
compressor operation.
(5104)
(Detection is inoperative for 10 minutes of
compressor starting process and for 10
minutes after and during defrosting.)
Open/short of outdoor unit thermistors
(TH3, TH6, TH7, and TH8)
Abnormal if open or short is detected
during compressor operation.
Open detection of thermistors TH3 and
TH6 is inoperative for 10 seconds to 10
minutes after compressor starting and 10
minutes after and during defrosting.
WCheck which unit has abnormality in its
thermistor by switching the mode of
U4
SW2.

Case
1 Check connection of connector (TH4) on the
outdoor controller circuit board.
Check breaking of the lead wire for
thermistor (TH4). Refer to 11-9.
2 Check resistance value of thermistor (TH4) or
temperature by microcomputer.
(Thermistor/TH4: Refer to 11-6.)
(SW2 on A-Control Service Tool: Refer to
page 68.)
3 Replace outdoor controller board.
1 Check connection of connector (TH3,TH6/TH7)
on the outdoor controller circuit board.
) Check connection of connector (CN3) on the
outdoor power circuit board.
Check breaking of the lead wire for thermistor
(TH3,TH6,TH7,TH8). Refer to page 53, 59 and 60.
2 Check resistance value of thermistor
(TH3,TH6,TH7,TH8) or check temperature by
microcomputer.
(Thermistor/TH3,TH6,TH7,TH8: Refer to page 47.)
(SW2 on A-Control Service Tool: Refer to
page 68.)
3 Replace outdoor controller circuit board.
WEmergency operation is available in case of
abnormalities of TH3, TH6 and TH7.
Refer to 11-8.
Open detection Short detection
– 40: or below 90: or above
– 40: or below 90: or above
– 40: or below 90: or above
– 27: or below 102: or above
– 35: or below 170: or above
12 Check outdoor fan.
Refer to (9) in "12-2 Trouble shooting by
inferior phenomena " on Service Technical
Guide for OCT04.
3 Check air flow path for cooling.
4 Check if there is something which causes
temperature rise around outdoor unit.
(Upper limit of ambient temperature is 46:.)
Turn off power, and on again to check if U5
is displayed within 30 minutes.
If U4 is displayed instead of U5, follow the
action to be taken for U4.
5 Check resistance value of thermistor (TH8)
or temperature by microcomputer.
(Thermistor/TH8: Refer to 11-6.)
(SW2 on A-Control Service Tool: Refer to
page 68.)
6 Replace outdoor power circuit board.
7 Replace outdoor controller circuit board.
