Daikin Air Conditioner U1 error code

Difficulty: Medium · Cost: $0–$200 · Duration: 5–10m

The U1 error means your Daikin air conditioner detected a reverse phase or open phase in the three-phase power supply. For single-phase residential units this typically indicates an open phase — one leg of the power supply is missing. Check the circuit breaker and power supply to the outdoor unit. Contact an electrician if the wiring needs inspection.

Common causes

  • Power supply wiring is connected in reverse phase order
  • One phase of the power supply (T phase) is open or disconnected
  • Outdoor unit PCB has a fault

How to fix it

  1. 1

    Check the circuit breaker for the outdoor unit and make sure it is fully on

  2. 2

    Check that the power supply wiring to the outdoor unit is correct and not reversed

  3. 3

    If wiring is correct and the error persists contact a qualified technician or a licensed electrician
