All Recorded Causes

Defective connection of the connector between indoor unit PCB

Verify Before Replacing Parts

  1. Confirm the exact Daikin model family and vrv 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 defective connection of the connector between indoor unit PCB.
  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 vrv fault does not return under normal load.
