How to fix Samsung E466
Check the breaker
Make sure the breaker for the outdoor unit is fully on and hasn't half-tripped. If it trips again when reset, leave it off.
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 persists, have a technician or electrician check the supply voltage and the inverter board.
