Mitsubishi Heavy air conditioning errors codes

Descriptions of all Mitsubishi Heavy air conditioning errors

Any Mitsubishi air conditioner has a self-diagnosis function. When turned on and during operation, the microprocessor through many sensors checks the errors of the Mitsubishi Heavy air conditioner in order to stop its operation in time if the parameters are violated. All Mitsubishi Heavy errors are divided into 2 types:

 

- emergency, for example, compressor malfunction;

 

- informational, for example, a message about a dirty filter.

 

Most errors can be cleared by switching the power supply, but with a 3-5-fold repetition within an hour, the air conditioner can stop completely, until a service specialist fixes the problem.

 

The Mitsubishi air conditioner informs the user of the error codes with a light indication, and when using a wired remote control, also with text on the screen.

In household series, only IR remote controls are used, so the error codes of the Mitsubishi air conditioner can be determined by the number of flashes of two indicators: “Run” in green and “Timer” in yellow. For inverter and On / Off models of different years of production, the same error can be displayed in different ways.

 

In semi-industrial and multi-zonal series, wired remotes are predominantly installed, where Mitsubishi Heavy error codes can be read from the remote control LCD screen, RC-E5 or RC-EX1.

 

 

Mitsubishi Heavy Air Conditioner Errors are indicated by the letter E (error) and a two-digit number. All error codes for Mitsubishi Heavy air conditioners are universal for residential, semi-industrial and multi-zone series. Those. E5 code, for example, will mean “Lack of communication between indoor and outdoor unit” for any MHI air conditioner.

In semi-industrial and multi-zone equipment, the Mitsubishi Heavy error codes from E1 to E31 refer to indoor units and are displayed only on the remote control of the problem unit. Mitsubishi Heavy error codes with numbers E32 - E75 refer to outdoor units and are displayed on all wired remotes of this freon circuit.
