Possible Causes

Defective evaporator NTC sensor, sensor dislodged from coil, broken sensor wiring, connector loose on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before removing any covers.

  • Check filter and airflow: A clogged air filter or blocked intake can cause abnormal coil temperatures. Clean the filter and ensure good airflow.
  • Inspect coil area: If you can access the evaporator coil, look for the small sensor clipped to the coil tubing. Ensure it is firmly attached and not hanging loose.
  • Check for ice: If the coil is iced over, allow the unit to thaw completely, then restart. Persistent icing may indicate a sensor or refrigerant issue.
  • Internal wiring: Verify the sensor harness is fully seated on the PCB and not damaged.
  • Persistent E2: The evaporator sensor likely needs replacement. This is a low-voltage part but requires partial disassembly; consider professional service.
