Mitsibushi Ecodan U4 error code: thermistor values
Hi All
Have had the pleasure of a trouble free air source heat pump for 8 years.
Came on today with a U4 error code and tripped the RCCB. The manual states that the error refers to one of the thermistors in the outdoor unit (TH32,TH33,TH6,TH7 or TH8).
The Heat pump is a Mitsibushi Ecodan PUHZ-W85VHA2R1-BS UK
Would anyone know where I can get the resistance values for the thermistors to check which one is faulty?
Thanks in advance.
Welcome to the forums @hughes674 – the resistance values you're looking for are available in the ME Engineer app.

And here's a suggestion from Mitsubishi's Technical Trainer. This video shows how to use the Main Remote Controller to look at thermistor readings, which can help narrow down which thermistor needs testing.

@hughes674 so the technical trainer has informed me that if have melcloud installed you can call the technical help desk and they will be able to access the system remotely and provide further guidance. If not, it’s a case of getting an engineer out unfortunately.

Hi All
Mitsubishi Ecodan PUHZ-W85VHA2R1-BS UK
Following on from a U4 fault on my heat pump I have now finally received the TH8 thermistor from Mitsubishi.
Issue I have is the power board needs removing to replace it but cannot get the power board off. released the rubber clips but the board is still firmly attached somehow.
Has anyone had any experience removing these?
