Midea R32 M thermal Arctic Mono fault F1
DC bus voltage is too low
Heat pumpWhat it means
DC bus voltage is too low (serial number 116)
Likely causes
- The DC bus voltage is too low.
- Power supply malfunction, loose power connections, capacitor failure, inverter issue
- Hydronic box main PCB fault
- Damaged cables between hydronic box main PCB and outdoor unit main PCB
- Outdoor unit main PCB fault
- Incorrect or abnormal input power supply (N or L)
Where to start
- Step 1: Check if power supply is abnormal. If yes, provide normal power. Step 2: Check if LED light is OK. If yes, check if voltage of PN is 380V. If PN voltage is 380V, check the main board. Step 3: If LED light is not OK, check if IGBT voltage is correct. If IGBT voltage is not correct, the inverter board is damaged, change it. Step 4: If IGBT voltage is correct, check the rectifier bridge.
- Check IGBT voltage.
- Verify LED light is OK. Measure PN voltage.

Safety: Isolate the outdoor unit and any backup heater, and give the inverter capacitors time to discharge before you open the electrics. Anything on the refrigerant circuit needs F-gas certification.
From the Midea manual for the R32 M thermal Arctic Mono. Check the model on the data plate before you order parts.
