793 on an alpha innotec heat pump: Inverter Temperature: Temperature sensor fault in the inverter / internal inverter temperature too high at least 5x within 24 h. Fault acknowledges itself
Short answer
On an alpha innotec heat pump, 793 means: Inverter Temperature: Temperature sensor fault in the inverter / internal inverter temperature too high at least 5x within 24 h. Fault acknowledges itself. The heat pump stops until the fault clears or is reset. An engineer is needed to fix the cause.

What it means
The manual says: Inverter Temperature: Temperature sensor fault in the inverter / internal inverter temperature too high at least 5x within 24 h. Fault acknowledges itself.
When it shows: Temperature sensor fault in the inverter / internal inverter temperature too high at least 5x within 24 h. Fault acknowledges itself.
Likely causes:
- Inverter overtemperature.
Is it safe?
| Does the heat pump stop? | Yes |
|---|---|
| Severity | Fault — clears by itself when the condition goes |
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump stops until the fault clears or is reset.
Resetting itself: yes.
Manual reset: automatic.
What you can check
- Note the error number and text shown on the Luxtronik display.
- The controller resets this automatically after the stated time - wait for the automatic restart before calling.
- Acknowledge the message by pressing the rotary pushbutton for about 7 seconds (as the Luxtronik manual permits); if the same error reappears, contact your installer or ait customer service with the error number.
- Check the heat pump breakers/isolator at the consumer unit are on (do not open any casing).
What the engineer will check
- No remedy given (fault acknowledges itself).
Who to ask for: heat pump service engineer (electrical/controls).
