Keystone air conditioner shows E0 and may not respond to controls or may be locked.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Corrupted control board memory, power surge damage, control panel lock function enabled, failed main PCB

Steps:

Power cycle: Unplug the unit for at least 10 minutes to allow the control to fully reset, then plug back in.
Check for lock function: Some models use a key combination (e.g., holding down two buttons) to lock/unlock controls. Refer to the user manual and attempt to unlock.
Surge protection: If E0 appeared after a storm or outage, consider using a surge protector going forward.
Board replacement: If E0 persists and controls remain unresponsive, the main control board likely needs replacement.
