Error Code COMP_POSITION_ERROR
Inverter cannot detect compressor rotor position
Critical
Stop using immediately - risk of damage or safety issue
Also displayed as: Inverter PBA LED blinks
What This Means
Compressor wiring CN102 open circuit; Bad soldering on resistor R1; Short or open on R515, R516, R517; Compressor internal failure; Refrigerant cycle issue
What actually causes this:
The inverter board's motor position detection algorithm has lost track of the compressor rotor, often due to a seized compressor or wiring fault.
First Thing to Check
Check for any loose wires at the compressor terminal block (CN102).
Parts Involved
How to Fix
- 1
Check compressor connections at CN102
- 2
Check voltage across R2 (0.09 ohm shunt resistor)
- 3
Inspect MAIN PCB soldering
- 4
Check resistors R515, R516, R517 for shorts or opens
- 5
Check compressor and cycle
