Daikin Air Conditioner H3 error code

Difficulty: Hard · Cost: $80–$250 · Duration: Requires professional service

The H3 error means your Daikin air conditioner detected a fault with the high pressure switch itself — not that high pressure was reached, but that the switch mechanism has a problem. This is different from E3 where the switch was activated. Contact a qualified technician to inspect and replace the high pressure switch.

Common causes

  • Defective high pressure switch
  • Broken wire to the high pressure switch
  • Defective outdoor unit PCB
  • Defective connector contact
