Outdoor low temperature protection.

All Recorded Causes

Verify Before Replacing Parts

  1. Confirm the exact Luxaire model family and default 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 the most likely cause listed above.
  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 default fault does not return under normal load.
