Mitsubishi Heavy Industries AC Error Codes (Guide 2024)

Mitsubishi commonly referred to as Mitsubishi is a leading multinational electrical equipment and electronics manufacturer. Established in 1921, Mitsubishi still has headquarters in Tokyo. What started as a commercial elevator, escalator, and high-end appliance venture is now offering a wide range of appliances that are available all around the world. Today, the company has come a long way, but its main focus remains on air conditioners, escalators, and other high-end appliances.

Speaking of air conditioning alone, Mitsubishi offers a wide range of systems such as room air conditioners, VRF systems, air curtains, package air conditioners, ventilators, and others. Offering customers a chance to choose anything from a standard air conditioner to a heavy industry AC.

Error codes are a common issue you may face with various appliances in your house or workplace. Rather than panicking, we suggest you grab a pen and paper and note down the code rather than pressing various buttons. This can commonly result in prolonging the issue or even causing more issues in the long run. So why risk damaging your appliance any further, when you will be able to find out the exact issue using the common error code list for Mitsubishi heavy industries AC error codes listed below. Once you know the exact issue you can easily call in a professional, or fix the issue yourself.

Troubleshooting

TroubleSolution
The unit does not restart immediately after you have stopped it.Restart is blocked for 3 minutes after you have stopped the operation to protect the unit. The three-minute protection timer in the microcomputer automatically starts it up again.
Airflow is not blown out when starting the HEATING operation.Airflow has stopped to prevent blowing out of cold air until the indoor heat exchanger has warmed up.
Airflow is not blown out for 5 to 15 min. or blown out not warm wind for a moment at HEATING operation.When outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high, the unit sometimes performs defrosting automatically. Please wait. During defrosting, water or steam may escape from the outdoor unit.
Airflow is not blown out when starting the DRY operation.The indoor fan may stop to prevent re-evaporation of dehumified moisture and to save energy.
Some steam escapes during COOL operation. This may occur if the room's temperature and humidity are very high. It disappears as soon as the temperature and humidity decrease.
There is a slight smell.Air blown out during operation may smell. This is caused by tobacco or cosmetics adhering to the unit.
You hear a slight gurgling sound.This is caused by refrigerating liquid moving within the unit.
You hear a slight cracking sound.This is caused by heat expansion or contraction.
You hear a hissing or clicking sound.This is caused by the operation of the refrigerant control valves or electric components.
After a power cut, the unit does not restart even if power has been restored.If the auto restart function is not set, the unit will not restart automatically. Use the remote control to start the operation again.
Remote control signals are not received.Remote control signals may not be received if the signal receiver on the air-conditioner is exposed to direct sunlight or other bright light. If so, cut out the sunlight or reduce the other light.
Moisture may form on the air outlet grills.If the unit is operated for a long time in high humidity, moisture may form on the air outlet grills and start dripping.
Whistling noise is heard from the outdoor unit.The noise means that the revolution speed of the compressor is increasing or decreasing.
RUN light stays on even though operation was stopped.The RUN light illuminates during CLEAN operation. Run light turns off when CLEAN operation ends.
