Error Code 85E

Power supply voltage too low for compressor operation

Critical

Stop using immediately - risk of damage or safety issue

Also displayed as: 85 E

What This Means

Input voltage below minimum operating threshold; Loose AC power connection; Faulty SMPS power supply; Input line voltage instability

What actually causes this:

The home's electrical voltage is too low, or there's a power supply problem in the inverter.

First Thing to Check

Check if other appliances are working normally; measure outlet voltage with a multimeter.

Parts Involved

SMPS circuitInverter PCBR312 (DC link resistor)

How to Fix

  1. 1

    Measure AC input voltage (should be AC 110-127V for US or AC 220-240V for International)

  2. 2

    Check if input voltage is below AC 53V (for 110-127V models) or AC 106V (for 220-240V models)

  3. 3

    Check R312 (DC link resistor) for short circuit

  4. 4

    Verify SMPS output voltage
