Panasonic Aquarea T-CAP R32 fault F45
Indoor water outlet temperature sensor abnormality
Heat pumpWhat it means
During startup and operation of cooling and heating, the temperatures detected by the indoor water outlet temperature sensor are used to determine sensor errors. Abnormality is judged if the fault condition continues for 5 seconds.
Likely causes
- Sensor wiring fault
- Faulty connector connection
- Faulty indoor unit PCB (main)
- Indoor communication error
Where to start
- Measure sensor resistance with sensor disconnected from PCB
- Confirm Force heater request ON by user OR auto turn ON by remote controller during error
- Check latest mode selection sent by remote controller (heat/cool/tank)
