Why is the air conditioner blinking?

The blinking of the air conditioner indicates errors in its operation. It warns the user about the presence of malfunctions, which, if ignored, can lead to extremely undesirable consequences - failure of the engine, compressor or board. Blinking indicators are equipped with those models of home air conditioners that are equipped with a self-diagnosis system. It prevents the device from turning on and causes the timer to blink.

The blinking of the air conditioner may indicate the following malfunctions:

Data transmission between the indoor and outdoor units is disrupted;
Increased or decreased voltage in the network;
The refrigerant pressure has been exceeded;
The compressor temperature is outside the limits;
The evaporator temperature sensor is broken;
There is no condensate drainage, etc.

Deciphering error codes for General Climate air conditioners makes it possible to troubleshoot problems without calling a service technician.

Air conditioner error codes , displayed on the remote control:

E2 – no contact with temperature sensor;
E3 – no contact with the evaporator temperature sensor;
E4 – no contact with the condenser temperature sensor;
E5 – the temperature of the drain pump motor is increased;
E6 – the protection mode of the outdoor unit is turned on (electrical circuit break, overheating protection);
E7 – no contact with EEPROM;
E8 – the water drain pan is filled to the top.

Error codes on displays

Some errors can be corrected yourself. To eliminate others, you will have to contact a specialist:

operation+timer+def/fan – too much voltage is supplied to the compressor more than once every 15 minutes. The air conditioner should be unplugged from the electrical outlet;
water alarm LED (blinking) – there is too much water in the condensate container for no longer than 3 minutes. The sump pump must be started manually;
water alarm LED (constantly lit) – the container is overfilled for more than 3 minutes. The device is in emergency mode. In order to clear this error code, you should disconnect it from the electricity supply;
def/fan (pre/def) – no contact with the temperature sensor on the condenser. The device will start working as soon as the temperature sensor turns on;
All the lights are blinking - a malfunction of the outdoor unit (overheating or hypothermia, power failure);
Timer – short circuit or no contact with the internal temperature sensor;
Operation – there is no contact with the temperature sensor on the evaporator or there is a short circuit in it;
operation+timer – contact failure with EEPROM. You cannot fix this error yourself, since you need to install a new control board.

Error codes for split systems type S-HR

Even among one equipment manufacturer, the designations always differ, so you should carefully study the instructions and know the exact model of your air conditioner and its units (internal and external). Only after these steps can you select the exact decoding of such codes on the air conditioner as pre/def. Below is a table for just such a case.

Be careful, these codes are valid for the following models: S12HR, S09HR, S18HR, S07HR.

Air conditioners have become indispensable household appliances designed to maintain human comfort. But due to the many different buttons, sometimes, especially for beginners, it is difficult to select and find the appropriate air conditioner mode.

Using this device is not as difficult as it might seem at the very beginning. As a rule, the buttons and their designations are the same on all remote controls, and if you learn and remember them, you can easily use different models in the future.

The remote control is a candy bar with control buttons and a display that shows the selected mode. At the very end there is a special LED with infrared rays. Thanks to this diode, when directing the device to an air conditioning device, it is possible to remotely control household appliances. When you constantly press the button with your finger, the signal is sent to the air conditioner all the time, and the battery charge is wasted. But in the quiet state of the remote control, the battery is not active, which helps to economically consume electrical energy.

Remote control with a classic set of buttons

Symbols on the air conditioner remote control

Let's look at the main symbols on the control device:

The dry function, located in the air conditioner, dehumidifies the air in the apartment. This button is very helpful during rainy periods, in the fall or spring before turning on the heating, when the humidity in the room is high.
The TRV button means the operation of the thermostatic valve. In other words, using this function you can adjust the cooling operation.
The fan icon means adjusting the fan speed or air flow intensity mode. By pressing this button again, you can change the operating speed to the required one.
The heat function on any air conditioner literally translates as heating. You can turn on the heating of the room thanks to warm air flows. The heat heating mode is indicated by a schematic drawing of the sun on the air conditioner.
The dehumidification mode is the same as the dry mode in the air conditioner, only it is called differently and has a designation in the form of a drop.
The cool button performs the opposite function of heating. Thanks to this button, you can turn on the room cooling mode. This is especially good on hot summer days, when the heat makes staying in a city apartment unbearable. This button is indicated by a snowflake.
The TURBO function means increased airflow. By turning it on, you can force the fan to supply increased air flow at high speed. Thus, the room is artificially ventilated without opening windows. And it will take much less time.

TURBO button

The Swing function helps the air to be distributed evenly throughout the apartment. This happens thanks to the special movement of the dampers.
Ifeel mode is designed to determine an individual comfortable temperature. Due to the fact that users often do not know what temperature in the room will be most comfortable for them, there is a thoughtless waste of electricity. And in this case, the I feel digger comes to the rescue. The technology is highly accurate: if for some reason the temperature in the apartment is below the required degree, the household appliance set to this mode begins to warm the air, automatically turning on the heat mode. And, conversely, when the temperature rises, the device immediately turns on air cooling. Thanks to this function, the room temperature will be maintained as comfortable as possible for your stay.
Hi or H1 - the designation of these characters appears on the screen during failures as an error. When these combinations appear on the display, you should know that for some reason the device has entered the defrost mode. In order to eliminate the error, simply turn off the remote control, wait a while and turn it on again. After this, you can set the desired mode.
Pre def is also an error code that is often found in the operation of air conditioners. It means that contact with the temperature sensor is temporarily lost. This happens due to various failures in the electronic system or problems with electricity. In order to restore the operation of the device, you just need to wait until contact with the temperature sensor is restored.
On timer / Off timer – setting will help set the device to automatic mode. It can be configured to turn off or turn on the desired mode at a specific specified time. This function is very convenient at night or when the owners of the apartment are away.

On/off timer button

Buttons for turning on and off a household appliance are necessary in order to turn the equipment on or off if necessary.
The cancel or CANCEL button helps the user to cancel a mode set by mistake.
Using the CLOCK button, you can set the time, which is very convenient for automatic mode, on/off timer, and simply using this device as a clock.
The LOCK function helps you lock all buttons on the remote control. This function helps out when there are children or pets in the family, and they can accidentally press and thereby reset all settings.
If the remote control has a backlight function, the LED button may be useful. It is needed for automatic backlighting of the remote control. Helps well in the dark.

What to do if the air conditioner does not follow the remote control commands

If the device does not respond to the remote control, you should:

make sure that the power supply system is working;
check the integrity of the case, screen, buttons;
make sure that the remote control emits infrared rays by taking a photograph, otherwise you will need to purchase a new remote control;
check the electrical network in the room to eliminate the cause of power fluctuations;
check the batteries for functionality.

To ensure that the remote control is not lost and is not subject to mechanical stress, shock, or pressure, you must purchase a special mount for it. It must be installed in a place that is accessible for use, handy and convenient.

The air conditioner remote control is an important component of this household electrical appliance. Without it, the air conditioner can only be started in automatic mode. But if for some reason the remote control is lost or broken and cannot be restored, you can purchase a universal one, suitable for all models and manufacturers.

Universal air conditioner remote control

An inverter air conditioner is a device whose operation is independently controlled by a compressor. When the maximum temperature is reached, such an air conditioner does not turn off, but reduces the degrees to maintain a constant comfortable temperature.

If you take a little time and understand the symbols of the buttons on the air conditioner remote control, you will find that using this device is not so difficult. Moreover, only a few main buttons stand out, the rest are used quite rarely.
