What it means

The manual says: Room temp. sensor (Ta) fault.

Likely causes:

  • Ta sensor in the user interface failed.
  • replace sensor or interface, or fit a new Ta from the hydraulic module.

Is it safe?

Does the heat pump stop?Not stated
Engineer needed?Yes

The manual does not say whether the heat pump stops.

What you can check

  • Read and note the exact code shown on the controller display.
  • Check the heat pump's breaker/isolator at the consumer unit is on.
  • Restart once via the controller (OFF then ON) as the manual allows; if the code returns, call an engineer.

What the engineer will check

  • Ta sensor in the user interface failed.
  • replace sensor or interface, or fit a new Ta from the hydraulic module.
