What it means
The manual says: ODU return temp err Return temperature sensor is on error in the outdoor unit.
Part involved: temperature sensor.
Likely causes:
- Check the sensor resistance The connector for the Tw_in sensor is loose. Reconnect it. The connector for the Tw_in sensor is wet or contains water. Drain the water and dry the connector. Add a waterproof adhesive The Tw_in sensor is faulty. Replace it with a new sensor.
Is it safe?
| Does the heat pump stop? | Partly |
|---|---|
| Severity | Fault — clears by itself when the condition goes |
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump keeps running with some functions stopped.
Resetting itself: yes - system restarts automatically when the cause disappears (may run in degraded/back-up mode meanwhile).
Manual reset: not required once cause removed.
What you can check
- Note the exact code shown on the controller and when it appeared.
- The manual's user steps allow switching the system off and on once to see if the error clears; if the code returns, contact the installer.
- If the code persists or returns, contact a heat pump engineer.
What the engineer will check
- Check the sensor resistance The connector for the Tw_in sensor is loose. Reconnect it. The connector for the Tw_in sensor is wet or contains water. Drain the water and dry the connector. Add a waterproof adhesive The Tw_in sensor is faulty. Replace it with a new sensor.
Who to ask for: heat pump engineer (controls / sensors).
Certification: Manufacturer-trained heat pump engineer.
