Discharge Low-pressure 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. Verify airflow first, then confirm operating pressures and temperature relationship before adjusting charge, since the most likely cause listed above.
  3. Look for restrictions, iced coils, or dirty heat-transfer surfaces that can mimic a charge problem, and separately confirm the next candidate on the list.
  4. After the correction, run the system long enough to confirm the default fault does not return under normal load.
