System No. 2 Malfunction of refrigerant thermistor

All Recorded Causes

Defective connector contact Defective refrigerant thermistor

Verify Before Replacing Parts

  1. Confirm the exact Daikin model family and chiller context before acting on a generic code description.
  2. Verify airflow first, then confirm operating pressures and temperature relationship before adjusting charge, since defective connector contact.
  3. Look for restrictions, iced coils, or dirty heat-transfer surfaces that can mimic a charge problem, and separately confirm defective refrigerant thermistor.
  4. After the correction, run the system long enough to confirm the chiller fault does not return under normal load.
