Airfel air conditioners are gradually developing in terms of their sales, popularity, and user trust has also become solid. That’s all because of their high-quality build and top-notch features. With all that coming in, they also put a lot of effort, resources, and focus into enhancing the user experience and making it as better as possible.
For that reason, they have added a self-diagnosis system that constantly troubleshoots the system and notifies users with an error code as soon as some issue occurs. The code is represented by the system’s combination of three LED lights. Though you may be able to resolve most errors by yourself, always seek professional help when needed to prevent any hazards or injuries.
A few Notes:
- 1st Green LED is on the left side of the 3 LEDs
- Red LED is in the middle of the 3 LEDs
- 2nd Green LED is on the right side of the 3 LEDs
- ON L means 0.5 seconds ON – 0.5 seconds OFF
- ON L1 means 5 seconds ON – 0.2 seconds OFF

Causes:
- The closed-circuit water pressure of the system is low.
- The system has initiated the protection mode because of low pressure.
Solutions:
If the error is in the boiler system:
- Fill the water in the boiler until it reaches the required or certain level.
- Ensure that the boiler has no clogging and the closed circuit is working fine.
If the error is in the air conditioner unit:
- Inspect the ducts and ensure they are the correct size. Replace and correct them if they are small or wrongly installed.
- Clean ducts and ensure no dirt, debris, or water stuck in there is causing clogging. Do a general cleaning of the system as well.
- Check the pressure switch and main PCB for any malfunction. Replace either of the components if it is faulty.
Causes:
This error is solely related to the boiler and can occur when/if:
- The flame is not initiated even though the ignition is working fine.
- The boiler is unable to kick start the heating because of no flame.
Solutions:
- Check and ensure that the electrical fuse and circuits are fine. Replace the fuse if it is blown.
- Reset the tripped breaker within the system.
- Ensure the correct temperature and water level in the system.
- Contact an HVAC engineer to inspect the system and make fixes as needed.
Don’t jump into the system heating and eclectic components if you don’t have enough knowledge and experience. Always seek professional help to prevent any health hazards for you and the heating system.
Causes:
