Full Diagnosis

Outdoor Ambient Temperature Sensor T4 Open or Short. Outdoor ambient temperature sensor T4 is open-circuit or short-circuit.

All Recorded Causes

Check T4 sensor wiring and connector for damage or corrosion. Measure sensor resistance and compare to temperature/resistance chart. Replace T4 sensor if resistance is outside specifications.

Verify Before Replacing Parts

  1. Confirm the exact Bryant model family and ductless systems context before acting on a generic code description.
  2. Confirm filter condition, blower operation, and coil cleanliness before replacing any controls — start by ruling out whether check T4 sensor wiring and connector for damage or corrosion.
  3. Measure airflow-related readings that match the symptom, such as temperature split or static pressure, and check whether measure sensor resistance and compare to temperature/resistance chart.
  4. After the correction, run the system long enough to confirm the ductless systems fault does not return under normal load.
