Mitsubishi Electric MSZ-GX mini-split error codes

On the MSZ-GX series you can read the unit's error code from the remote controller while the left or upper operation-indicator lamp on the indoor unit is blinking. The manual tells you to stop using the air conditioner, turn off the breaker and contact your dealer when the unit has an error.

What this table coversRemote-controller error codes from the "Error Code Display Mode" page of the MSZ-GX / MUZ-GX (A2L series) operation manual. Other Mitsubishi lines use different codes and LED blink patterns.

How to read the display

With the remote controller off, point it at the indoor unit and hold CHECK with a fine-tipped object. "00" is shown. Keep pointing until the indoor unit beeps.

When the display shows 00: two beeps means the unit has no error, and one beep means the unit has an error. Then press the up or down buttons to step through codes in order from 00 and E6 up to UP.

For each code, two beeps from the indoor unit means the unit has the error for the code shown. One beep means no error for that code, so keep stepping. No beep means the diagnosis failed, so try again.

Pressing other buttons cancels the error code display. If the remote is operated while the lamp is not blinking, the code shown might not be accurate.
