I have an old mitsubishi mr slim 1.5hp aircond.

It is faulty. Can run for 15 minutes n suddenly it stop and giving a 14 blinking light.

I found the reason online and ask my ac repair tecnician to look at.

He suggest to just change the indoor unit to other type that can easily find the sparepart. What do u guys think?

1. Change all set, budget around 1.3k
2. Ask other technician to come
3. Change the indoor unit, rm480 for a recond

how old is your unit?

if got budget , change new one.. shopee got lots of cheap branded like york on sale
new one less headache then fixing it if its out of warranty

5 years++. Looking for either daikin or panasonic. Its located at the open hall downstairs.

The copper pipe is in the wall, so upgrading to 2hp or inverter might be an issue if need to hack the wall.

Its so cheap, dont bother repair bro.

Waste money only.

your technician sure is the indoor unit that spoil?

not the outdoor unit?

better change all set jer

less headache when problem arise

if outdoor unit(compressor) is in workable condition

u can sell it about rm50-100

You were saying to just change to a new unit?

He made a bypass i dont know what, and the ac works fine. So he suspect is the indoor unit. He quoted 480 for a recond unit.

Thanks. If i buy a new one, maybe I can send the old one to kampung and use it there.

Change new bro. Dont get conned.

instalment or whatever. Dont go for recond.

What’s the error for? Indoor coil sensor?

Sure bro. Bought a recond before for rm800. Spoilt after a year. Damn.

Not sure. From what i found it can be refrigerant not enuf (but when it work can fell the cold air), unit is short cycling, outdoor fan motor locks up, or the unit has been pumped down for a long time. I dont know what do they mean

I vote change new unit... my Mr.Slim running strong, already 5yrs+

like others said, not worth change recond and get other issue need fix later....
new unit confirm no issue, even have issue also can claim warranty.

Cheers.

Got the link? I go read on my own

Its been 5 year, Idu fault now ... Odu might be soon and no one will know. Yea, some said my ac work for n year and still working but I guess not all ac is the same, even for the same brand. Too many variable, manufacturing, transportation, storage, installation, use, maintenance ... all play a part.

Change the whole unit ... peace of mind.

Page 25. Not the same model though. But i couldnt find mine.

Mine is ms-gh13vc

so which one is the flash pattern?

I have another 2 units and they are still working fine. Hope it will last. Hehe

Make sense. I'll make a survey later

14 times flash.

If i turn off the main switch and wait for 30 seconds before turn on it will work again for 15-20 minutes before flashing.

erm..........i think the aircon repairman is full of crap.

get another one.

i suspect the aircon filter(filter for the refrigerant) might be blocked. need to replace the outdoor refrigerant filter. that part is generic and can fit for any brand aircon

Just call another one and ask him to check that filter?
