LED-86-HP-switch on an Ideal Heating Logic Air: High pressure switch error

Short answer

On an Ideal Heating heat pump, LED-86-HP-switch means: High pressure switch error. 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: High pressure switch error.

Part involved: high pressure switch (P770).

When it shows: At power-on, high pressure switch detected open.

Likely causes:

  • 1. HP switch connector disconnected/open 2. HP switch characteristic failure 3. Inverter PCB failure.

Is it safe?

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 or fault message shown on the controller/Halo and when it appeared; check the heat pump's isolator and consumer-unit breaker are on.

What the engineer will check

  • Check HP switch connector/cable; check switch characteristic (opens 4.2 +/-0.1 MPa, closes 3.2 +/-0.15 MPa); replace inverter PCB.

Who to ask for: Heat pump engineer; casing removal only by persons competent with R32 (A2L); refrigerant-circuit work requires Cat I/II F-gas certification (I&M p.75 warning).

Certification: F-gas Cat I/II for refrigerant work; electrical work by competent person.
