TCL error code E4

What it means

Compressor discharge temperature protection.

Possible causes

Poor condenser cooling causing high discharge temperature Low mass flow due to low charge Incorrect refrigerant or non-condensables in system

Suggested fix

Evaluate condenser operation and verify charge quantity and type, measure discharge temperature and pressures; correct any identified fault before restarting the compressor and clearing the error.

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