Troubleshooting

Before calling a repair man, please check the followings:

Symptom: The air conditioner does not work

Possible reason:

  • Problem with the remote control.
  • Problem with the voltage. Please shut the power, wait 3 minutes and restart the unit.
  • Verify the circuit breaker or fuse.

Symptom: The unit does not blow warm air in heating mode

Possible reason:

  • The compressor is in a delay mode (to protect the compressor there are several minutes delay for every start) wait a few minutes after starting the unit.
  • The hot air will be blown out only after the defrosting operation.

Symptom: Low efficiency of cooling or heating

Possible reason:

  • The air filters are too dirty.
  • The intake vent or outlet vent is blocked up.
  • In heating operation, the ambient temperature is too low. Defrosting operation may be required.

Symptom: Noise

Possible reason:

  • Water leak noise. It is the sound of the circulation of refrigerant.
  • Condensed air leaking out. In heating operation, during the defrosting, it is the sound of the back-flow refrigerant.

Symptom: Abnormality on the remote control screen

Possible reason:

  • Batteries need to be replaced.
  • Batteries are inserted incorrectly. Take the batteries out and insert them again.

Symptom: Cold water leaking from the air conditioner

Possible reason: Moisture will occur in the air outlet due to the temperature difference

  3. I recently had the E2 error code on 2 units a KFR-35GW/BMVE and KFR-50GW/BMVE. I recommend checking the refrigerant. Our’s was extremely low and having it filled/charged resolved the issue. In all of the Googling, this solution never came up.

    Initially the error code would come on and flipping the breaker off for 10 mins or so would reset it and it would work. Probably did this about 10 times every so often (like over weeks). Eventually this did not work and researching online led us to believe that either the indoor pipe sensor or indoor PCB was bad. Spent lots of time online trying to find these replacement parts to no avail. Was finally able to get a friend of a friend that is an A/C person to check them out and discovered the Freon was too low. Hope this helps someone else out there stuck with these “unserviceable” units.
