U9 / UH
May need a pro

The outdoor unit has detected a supply voltage outside its normal range, a fault in the signal it uses to time its power circuit, or a current sensor that isn't working.

Meanings can vary by outdoor unit series; check your manual.

Safety first: unplug the air conditioner (or switch off its breaker) before touching filters, hoses or panels. If you smell burning or gas, or see water near the outlet, stop and call a professional.

How to fix Mitsubishi Electric U9 / UH

  1. Check the breaker

    Make sure the breaker for the outdoor unit is fully on. If it trips again when reset, leave it off.

  2. Reset the power at the breaker

    Switch off the breaker that feeds the air conditioner (some systems have separate breakers for the indoor and outdoor units, so switch off both). Wait about five minutes, switch the power back on and restart the unit to see if the code clears.

When to call a technician

If the code returns, have a technician or electrician check the supply and the outdoor electronics.
