  • Inspect UI-to-main harness: Remove the control panel and verify the harness to the main board is secure.
  • Power reset: Disconnect power for 10 minutes, then retry the super mode.
  • Board diagnosis: If E18 reappears and the compressor does not change speed or duty cycle, the main control board or inverter may be faulty. Replacement should be performed by a technician.
