9-2. Troubleshooting method
The remote controllers (main remote controller and central control remote controller) and the interface P.C. board
of an outdoor unit are provided with an LCD display (remote controller) or a 7-segment display (outdoor interface
P.C. board) to display operational status. Using this self-diagnosis feature, the fault site / faulty part may be
identified in the event of a fault 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 fault in consultation with the list.
• When investigating a fault on the basis of a display provided on the indoor remote controller or TCC-LINK central control remote controller -
See the "TCC-LINK remote controller or main remote controller display" section of the list.
• When investigating a fault on the basis of a display provided on an outdoor unit - See the "Outdoor 7-segment display" section of the list.
• When investigating a fault on the basis of a wireless remote controller-controlled indoor unit - See the "Light sensor indicator light block"
section of the list.

Typical fault site
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.
MCU communication between main controller and motor
microcontroller is faulty.
Periodic communication between indoor header and follower
units cannot be maintained.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TCJ) has been open /
short-circuited.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TC2) has been open /
short-circuited.
Heat exchanger temperature sensor (TC1) has been open /
short-circuited.
Ambient temperature sensor (TA) has been open / short-
circuited.
Discharge temperature sensor (TF) has been open / short-
circuited.
Indoor EEPROM is abnormal (some other error may be
detected).
There is more than one outdoor unit in group.
There is at least one stand-alone 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.
There is duplication in central control address setting.
Unit shutdown has been caused by external error input
(CN80).
Indoor AC fan error is detected (activation of fan motor
thermal relay).
Float switch has been activated.
Indoor DC fan error (e.g. overcurrent or lock-up) is detected.
Follower unit cannot be operated due to outdoor unit alarm
(E03 / L03 / L07 / L08).
