How many condenses do you have? Is one a multi head? Does the fault occur when all the heads from the multi head are turned on or only when one is turned off? If one is running, does the other heads coil get cold while off? No? Turn the on and the other off If possible send a pic of the piping coming out of the condenser Answer from Nerfixion on reddit.com

r/hvacadvice on Reddit: UH and A5 error code daikin minisplits
June 24, 2023 -
Bought a new house (~750 sq ft) with daikin minisplits, one downstairs (FTXS18LVJU) and two upstairs (CTXS07LVJU). Was having issues with them randomly shutting off and throwing UH error code and one daikin being 10x colder than others. daikin sent out a contractor (which is bs btw, do they not have dedicated techs that just inspect?) and he said the tubing was wrong and it was a $3000 fix. thought it was fishy, had a 2nd hvac guy come out and he said heat pump (4MXS36RMVJU) had low refrigerant and filled it back up. now all blow fairly cold, but if i turn off one of the daikins, then they still go into error mode UH after ~30 mins. any thoughts?

What you have is a Daikin Multiport. The problem is likely that the installing contractor mixed up the wiring from the outdoor to the indoor units. Daikin Multiports come with a fix from the factory for this as it’s a common issue. Turn off all indoor units from the remote controllers or thermostats. Remove cover above where the copper line sets leave the outdoor unit by way of two Phillips head screws. You will see a circuit board to the left with several LED lights (4-5 lights). Turn off power to outdoor unit by way of the breaker or the disconnect. Cycle power back on and wait for 5 minutes. Press and release the SW3 button located on the board to the left being very careful not to touch any of the wiring labeled A, B, C, etc. as these wires will have 208-230V active on them. This has initiated the wrong wiring check. If the check has been initiated you will see a flashing pattern of red lights on the board on the left. The test will then run for 10-20 minutes at which time the outdoor unit will shut off. If there were any inconsistencies in the wrong scheme from the outdoor to any or all of the indoor units, then the outdoor unit will automatically correct the wiring internally through the board logic and no physical change will be needed of the wiring scheme. What is basically happening when the wires from A, B, etc. do not correspond correctly to the Port A, Port B, etc. is that the refrigerant goes to an air handler that the blower is not currently running on or is running on low-low, so that the indoor unit begins to freeze up and an A5 error code is given. As you’ve said, the problem doesn’t happen when all indoor units are running as it doesn’t matter at that point that the refrigerant is going to wrong indoor unit as refrigerant is going to all indoor units and all indoor blowers are running. For years this has been the very first thing I do when I come upon a Daikin multiport as I’ve no idea who has been there before me, or if the installer did it correctly or not. It should be noted also that this change is stored in the PCB on the outdoor unit. So in the future if the outdoor unit circuit board is ever replaced or if the entire outdoor unit replaced, the wrong wiring check will need to be done again or else you’re back in the same boat as before.

Daikin AC Units split- Errors UH and A5
A5 is a coil over or under temp depending on the mode. UH means another unit on that system has an A5. A C4 is a thermistor failure. You probably had a thermistor failure that reported a bad coil temp, triggering the A5 and UH. It’s a pretty easy replacement. More on reddit.com

Yes so that indicates high suction pipe temperature, which is most likely low refrigerant, but could be other things, like a compressor failing to start or a clogged txv. I would advise touch nothing and call out the installers asap ! More on reddit.com

June 24, 2023Daikin Split zeigt Fehlercode A5/UH an, wenn auf Kühlen eingestellt?
Zwei Köpfe, ein Kondensator? Wenn ja, prüf mal, ob der Kopf, der nicht läuft, einen Temperaturunterschied an der Spule hat. Hatte ich schon mal, lag am defekten EEV am zweiten Kopf. Deswegen kam Kältemittel in den inaktiven Kopf und hat den Fehler ausgelöst, weil der ohne Betrieb zufrieren würde. Mit beiden Köpfen an lief’s aber, weil der Ventilator das verhindert hat.

r/hvacadvice on Reddit: Daikin AC Units split- Errors UH and A5
March 19, 2024 -
Hey, I have a dual split system with one outdoor condenser unit (2MXS18PMVM) connected to two indoor evaporator units (CTXSO9PMVM5), installed in separate rooms. One of the indoor units started displaying the error code "UH". The other unit is showing an error code "A5". I can't turn on neither of them. Currently there's quite the heatwave where I live, so something might have overheated.
My immediate attention is on the unit showing the "UH" error, as it's where I sleep (the other one is in an empty guest room). If I were to temporarily turn off the unit showing the "A5" error (which I read it might be a problem on the indoor heat exchange of that unit), would it allow the other unit (with the "UH" error, which afaik is a communication/transmission error) to turn on? I'm hoping to at least get the ac on my room running properly until I can get professional help. I'm wondering if anyone has insights into what might be causing these errors or how to fix the one in my room until I'm able to schedule technicians to come look at it
EDIT: After turning on and off all of my apartment circuit breakers, I could the on in my room on, even though it doesn't refrigerate, just ventilate... And the other one is showing that it has the "C4" error

r/hvacadvice on Reddit: Daikin error code U0 - 00 on a 4 months old system
September 21, 2024 -
Hey all,
Firstly, I've already written the installers. But seeing it's a weekend, I'm unlikely to get anything back until Monday I recon.
Anyways, in short, today, my (relatively) newly installed Daikin HVAC faulted out, with all internal units spewing a U0 - 00 error. I had a google and it looks like the error is refrigerant related. Which makes me worry if its leaking?
I don't know much about HVAC systems, but how risky is it if this is leaking? its R32 gas in there, is it safe to stay in the property for family (and pets) if there is a possible leak on the system?

I too got the same error after the 1 month of installation, seems like there is a leak in the indoor unit coil and the company had to replace the indoor unit.
