How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power. The discharge line can be very hot; allow time to cool before touching.
- Locate discharge sensor: It is typically strapped to the compressor discharge pipe inside the outdoor unit.
- Check mounting: Ensure the sensor is tightly strapped and insulated as originally installed.
- Inspect wiring: Follow the sensor wires to the PCB and check for damage or loose connectors.
- Replace sensor: If the sensor is cracked, burnt, or F5 persists, replace it with a Haier-specified discharge pipe sensor.
