York AC Error Codes – What Do The Errors Mean?

If you own a York AC unit, you may have come across one or more of the following error codes: EC, FC, E5, E7, E1. But what do these codes mean? We will provide you with the York AC error code and the reason for the fault to help you troubleshoot your AC unit.

York AC Error Codes – Air Conditioner

Error codes on the York AC mean that the unit is experiencing a problem. The first step to take when troubleshooting these codes is to check the manual for your specific model of York AC unit. You can try simple troubleshooting methods, such as experimenting with the solutions in the manual or try resetting the AC, once you’ve checked the service manual. If you do not have the manual, find your York AC type in the list below and find the error code definition. The error code definition will tell you the exact fault with the AC. This will help you to examine the part that is at fault where it then can then be repaired or replaced.
