Trouble shooting for Mitsubishi Air Conditioning error codes based on the results of self-diagnostics.
The modern air conditioners from Mitsubishi have a very developed self-diagnostics system, and when the control system detects an error, it blocks the operation of the entire device and displays a cause of faulty condition.
The control system of the Mitsubishi air conditioners reports that an error occurred by blinking of a light-emitting diode on the surface of the internal (or external) unit. When a particular error of an air conditioner is detected, light-emitting diodes blink in a certain order, which corresponds with a particular error. If the control system of an air conditioner detects more than one error, the error with the highest priority is displayed first and then all the following errors are displayed
After completing installation and the wiring and piping of the indoor and outdoor units, check for refrigerant leakage, looseness in the power supply or control wiring, wrong polarity, and no disconnection of one phase in the supply.
The following is a list of Mitsubishi Air Conditioning error codes.
