Midea R32 M thermal Arctic Mono fault H8

Pressure sensor error

Heat pump

What it means

Error code 47. Pressure sensor error detected by user interface and refrigerant system main PCB.

Likely causes

  1. Pressure sensor short-circuited or failed
  2. Pressure sensor fault
  3. Sensor wiring fault

Where to start

  1. Measure resistance among three terminals of pressure sensor; mega Ohm or infinite resistance indicates failure
  2. Step 1: Check high pressure sensor connection on refrigerant system main PCB for looseness - if yes, ensure sensor connected properly
  3. Step 2: Measure resistance among the three terminals of the pressure sensor to check for short-circuit or failure - if failed, replace the sensor

Safety: Isolate the outdoor unit and any backup heater, and give the inverter capacitors time to discharge before you open the electrics. Anything on the refrigerant circuit needs F-gas certification.
