What it means
The manual says: Abnormal compressor rotation.
Likely causes:
- Supply voltage drop.
- Fuses CF2/CF4.
- Power supply module.
- Compressor.
Is it safe?
Switch the heat pump off at its isolator and call an engineer.
| Does the heat pump stop? | Yes |
|---|---|
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump stops until the fault clears or is reset.
What you can check
- Note the code/LED pattern and the model from the rating plate, then contact a heat pump/refrigeration engineer.
- Check the heat pump's breaker/isolator at the consumer unit is on.
What the engineer will check
- Follow CHECKS/SOLUTION columns on manual pp59-60 (resistance tests >100 kOhm on power module, fuse continuity, probe resistance tables 1-4).
Who to ask for: refrigeration / heat pump engineer.
Certification: F-gas certification (refrigerant circuit work) and electrical competence.
