Full Diagnosis

Standby/Idle (normal, no active call).

All Recorded Causes

No action needed.

Verify Before Replacing Parts

  1. Confirm the exact American Standard model family and ac and heat pump context before acting on a generic code description.
  2. Start with the exact model documentation and verify the full operating sequence before replacing parts, particularly around no action needed.
  3. Use the listed causes as branches to confirm or eliminate with measurements, not assumptions — the next candidate on the list is a reasonable second branch.
  4. After the correction, run the system long enough to confirm the ac and heat pump fault does not return under normal load.
