How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before cleaning.

  • Clean filters: Remove and wash the indoor filters thoroughly.
  • Clean coil: Use a coil cleaner or mild detergent and water to clean the evaporator fins.
  • Check fan operation: Ensure the indoor fan runs at all speeds and delivers strong airflow.
  • Remove obstructions: Keep curtains, furniture, and covers away from the air inlet and outlet.

If P4 continues after restoring airflow, the indoor coil sensor or PCB may be faulty and require service.
