Possible Causes

Blocked condenser coil, Fan not running, Overcharged refrigerant, Faulty high-pressure switch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power. High refrigerant pressures are dangerous.

  • Clean condenser coil: Remove debris from the coil and ensure at least 600 mm clearance around the unit for airflow.
  • Check fan operation: With power restored, verify that the fan starts and runs smoothly. If not, turn power off and inspect the fan motor and capacitor.
  • Reset high-pressure switch: Some models have a manual reset button on the high-pressure switch. After the unit cools and the cause is corrected, press to reset.

If E02 recurs, a refrigeration technician should check charge level and system operation.
