Gree error code E3

What it means

Low pressure protection.

Possible causes

Refrigerant leak or undercharge Dirty indoor filters causing poor airflow Restriction at expansion device or liquid line

Suggested fix

Inspect indoor filters and coil, check suction pressure and look for frost or oil traces indicating leaks; a technician should repair any leaks, recharge properly and clear restrictions before restoring operation.

Safety first. Isolate the power supply before inspecting any unit. Refrigerant-circuit and electrical repairs must be carried out by a qualified, registered technician.
