Sanden Heat Pump G4 GAU-A45HPC Error Code Example
"The HP will display an error code if it is unable to function normally.
Error codes are indicated by a red LED on the control panel. The control panel is visible via a small window at the right side of the heat pump and it can be accessed by removing the heat pump top cover (4 screws).
After a component is replaced or the inspection is completed, cycle power to the unit several times to confirm the error does not re-occur. Below is the list of the error codes. If the corrective action does not solve the error problem, a malfunction of the PCB valve is highly likely."
