Possible Causes
Open or shorted T2 sensor, Sensor dislodged from evaporator coil, Damaged sensor wiring, Faulty indoor PCB sensor input.
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the indoor unit internals.
Steps to check:
- 1. Locate T2 sensor: Remove the front panel and filters. The T2 sensor is usually clipped directly to the evaporator coil tubing.
- 2. Check mounting: Ensure the sensor is firmly clipped to the coil and making good contact with the copper tube. Re-clip if loose.
- 3. Inspect wiring: Follow the sensor wires to the PCB. Look for cuts, pinched sections, or signs of rodent damage. Ensure the connector is fully inserted.
- 4. Replace if necessary: If the sensor appears damaged or if F2 persists, replacing the T2 sensor is usually straightforward: unplug the old sensor, remove it from the coil, clip in the new one, and reconnect.
When to call a technician: If a new sensor does not resolve F2, the indoor PCB sensor circuit may be defective and should be tested and replaced by a professional.
