Possible Causes

Supply voltage below TCL operating range, Undersized extension cord on portable unit, Loose plug or outlet, Internal power board fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before inspecting the cord or outlet.

  • Step 1 – Check outlet: Plug the AC directly into a properly grounded wall outlet. Do not use extension cords or power strips.
  • Step 2 – Test voltage (if qualified): Measure voltage at the outlet; it should match the rating on the nameplate. If low, contact an electrician.
  • Step 3 – Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or loose prongs. Replace the cord set if damaged.
  • Step 4 – Internal board: If P0 persists with correct voltage, the internal power board may be faulty and should be replaced.

Warning: Do not operate the unit on generators or inverters that provide unstable voltage unless they are rated for sensitive electronics.
