Electrolux Air Conditioner Error Codes: How to Decipher Fault Codes and Fix Them

Breakdown of temperature sensors (F)

The sensors are usually solid state thermistors. Simple models of Electrolux air conditioners have two such elements, there are more of them in smart appliances.

Temperature sensors - components that record indicators in certain places outside or inside the system and transmit information to the control unit

According to the data received, an adjustment is being made: the motor-compressor works actively, moderately, or turns off, issuing an error code.

The following temperature sensors are installed in the indoor unit:

1. room air. Sets the compressor operation parameters. F0 error.
2. Evaporator (located at the midpoint of the element). Shuts off the compressor if the evaporator temperature drops below zero to prevent icing of the latter. Code F2 is displayed.
3. at the inlet and outlet of the evaporator. Give errors F1 and F3.
4. Fan motor.Shuts off the engine in case of overheating to prevent fire.
5. Fuse in the terminal block. Opens the power supply circuit of the device and burns out when overheated more than 90 degrees.

The general rule for solving problems with temperature sensors is to find everything related to them on the control board: no signal, open, short circuit.

Temperature sensors are located in the outdoor unit:

1. outdoor air. Limits the operation of the device if the outdoor temperature is below the permissible value according to the characteristics. The device gives an F4 error and simply does not turn on.
2. Capacitor. There may be several such sensors in different places. The function of the element is to maintain the pressure in the desired range under changing conditions outside.
3. Compressor discharge temperatures. With its help, pressure is indirectly determined. If it exceeds the norm, an error F8 or F9 is issued.
4. Gas line. Repeats the low pressure sensor.

The design of the air conditioner may have a different number of sensors (on the fan motor, connecting block, and others), but the procedure for issuing an error is the same.

To understand whether the thermistor is working or not, you need to determine its resistance. Of the tools you will need an ohmmeter or multimeter, as well as a room thermometer.

We take out the sensor, measure the resistance, read the readings, measure the room temperature and compare the numbers with the documentation for the model under study. The average and most common value at an ambient temperature of 25 degrees is 10 kOhm

If it turns out that the sensor is faulty, a constant or trimming resistor can be installed in its place to temporarily restore the device's performance.In this case, the air conditioner will operate at maximum power, so it is worth expediting the replacement of the part with a serviceable original one.

Other malfunctions

Error f4 means a malfunction of the circulation pump of the gas boiler Electrolux gcb 24 basic x fi. The repair scheme is simple - you need to restart the device to set the optimal pressure. If the reboot did not help, then you need to install a new pump.

Error I01

On a gas boiler Electrolux gwh 265 ern, the parameter means there is a blockage in the heat exchanger. It is necessary to clean it from scale with a solution of citric acid. Proper detachment of the part and cleaning methods are described in detail in the instruction manual for the equipment.

Code e7

The indicator notifies the user about the presence of a defect in the coolant thermostat. It is necessary to check the sensor and the electronic board of the boiler. If the problem is in the sensor, you need to clean or replace the connecting wires and restart the device. If the board is broken, replace new.

There may also be a problem in hot water supply, which requires diagnostics of the electronic board and sensor wires for short circuits and other malfunctions. If there is noise after starting the equipment or stopping it, you need to check the operation of the pump, fan, and bleed excess air.

It happens that after starting the boiler and running the heating system for a long time, the temperature in the room remains unchanged. If this problem occurs, you need to check the heating valve (it is open or closed), the heating circuit for excess air and the condition of the cleaning filter.

Many problems can be fixed on your own. The main thing is to identify the cause of the malfunctions in time and realistically assess your own capabilities during repairs. If there are difficulties in dismantling and replacing the components of the gas boiler, it is better to contact the master for help in repairing the equipment.

Elimination of breakdowns associated with blockages, collection and discharge of water

Possible causes of the i10 error are as follows:

• there is no water in the water supply or the ball valve is closed at the inlet to supply it;
• the inlet filter is clogged with debris;
• a kink in the inlet hose has formed;
• inlet valve does not open.

To eliminate the damage, check the presence of water in the water supply and the condition of the above parts. The filter must be cleaned, the hose must be straightened. The filling valve is easy to purchase and replace on your own, or call the master to diagnose and repair the part.

The i20 error in the Electrolux dishwasher indicates that one of these problems has arisen:

• the drain filter is clogged;
• the impeller of the drain pump is blocked by debris;
• there is a blockage in the pipe or drain hose;
• The water level sensor in the tank is not working.

First of all, you need to clean the filter from debris, then check if the pump impeller is jammed with a piece of dishes or debris. To do this, remove the pump cover located under the filter. A kink in the drain hose is also easy to fix. If the above steps are completed, and the water still does not drain, you will have to replace the pressure switch.

The i30 alphanumeric combination on the display indicates the operation of the Aquastop system.Possible reasons - damage to the tank, one of the nozzles, hoses or their connections. The inlet solenoid valve in this case immediately shuts off the water supply to avoid flooding. It may be necessary to completely disassemble the PMM for repairs, so it is better to call the master to the house.

IF0 - another code dishwasher malfunctions Electrolux, informing the user that water is being drawn into the tank very slowly. In this case, the machine will wash the cutlery with less liquid. It is easy to eliminate such an error - after the washing cycle, drain the water, dial it again, and the emergency coding will disappear.

The principle of operation of Electrolux boilers

Gas equipment from the Electrolux company is distinguished by a large assortment of models for every taste. Among the boilers you will find double-circuit and single-circuit. The equipment is perfectly adapted to Russian operating conditions. The manufacturer has provided the following points:

• Interruptions in pressure in the water and gas mains - all devices function stably even at minimum pressure;
• Frosty winters are not terrible for equipment. The "Anti-freeze" function ensures the constant operation of the device;
• High efficiency - 94%.

The security system has not been overlooked either. The safety valve will protect against high pressure, the flame sensor - from the extinction of the fire in the burner, the draft sensor - from the ingress of carbon monoxide into the room

The modern ETS control system makes operation comfortable. The user can adjust the temperature depending on the weather outside.When you leave the house, program the appliance to work at intervals of 30 minutes. This will significantly reduce costs.

You can see the device device in the picture below:

The operation of the closed combustion chamber is carried out by a fan, which forcibly removes the combustion products to the street. Accordingly, such systems do not need a chimney.

There are models with an open chamber. To maintain the flame, they require natural ventilation in the room, connection to a chimney.

How to troubleshoot an LG air conditioner?

Awareness of the current shortcomings in the operation of the equipment makes it possible to eliminate them independently.

But, unfortunately, the owner of the air conditioner can not fix every mistake.

Actual air conditioning repair DIY LG possible only in isolated cases, when errors detected during self-diagnosis of the device suggest elementary malfunctions

If the LG air conditioner provides information about complex breakdowns, you should definitely invite a certified service technician. You must first restart the air conditioner: it is possible that after a reboot the error will disappear.

You will have to resort to the services of a wizard if the device signals such malfunctions:

• compressor malfunctions;
• errors in the operation of blocks of the electronic control system;
• refrigerant leak;
• improper motor operation.

The user can independently unlock the blinds if foreign objects interfere with their normal operation. As well as cleaning equipment or scheduled replacement of filters and solving problems with the power supply of the device.

Recent work is related to the installation of a voltage stabilizer, because often complications in the operation of the air conditioner arise precisely because of the unstable current supply in the power grid.

It is worth remembering that it is highly undesirable to disassemble the device yourself. In addition to irreparable damage that the owner can cause to equipment due to lack of knowledge and skills, you can lose free warranty service.

Fujitsu Air Conditioner Coded Faults

Using colored indicators and coded messages, Fujitsu warns users of problems. Here are the most common Fujitsu trouble codes that you may find on your air conditioning system:

• Red light sensor (RLS): blinks twice, as does the green light sensor (RLS). The air sensor data is not correct. You should check whether the device is in the "timer" mode, whether the filters are clogged.

The Gree diagnostic system has the same minimal functionality as Lessar, Pioneer and General Climate.

Problems with draining fluid from the tank

If the E20 error of the Electrolux washing machine is displayed, this means that water has not been removed from the SM for a period of 10 minutes or more. A breakdown can be signaled by codes E21, C2, E23, EF0 and E24.

The EF1 code can inform about the excess of the drain time. The combination of EF2 indicates an increased level of foaming, which may also be due to a clogged drain line. Error EF3 indicates a leak in the pump or damage to its wiring, leading to the operation of the Aquastop system.

First of all, the problem must be looked for in the sewer and drain hose - they can be clogged. In addition, you should check the filter located in front of the drain pump, there may also be a blockage.

You can check and clean the drain filter in the washing machine yourself

The cause may also be a malfunction:

• drain pump - error E85;
• triac that controls the operation of the pump - codes E23 and E24 are possible;
• other elements of the electronic control unit.

The resistance of the winding that drives the pump should be around 200 ohms. If its value is very different, the pump will have to be replaced.
