I have a frigidaire minisplit A/C. when I turn it on the condenser outside doesn`t start and after a while the led dipslay shows F6, what`s wrong?

It uses the condensation to cool the coil. It is normal to not see any water

did you try to set to maximum heat? (suspect the thermostat is defective)

You have to try resetting the system. First turn the breaker off for the condenser and wait about 20 seconds. After you turn it back on the system should reset.

Hello friend, thank you for your post!

I understand that you are seeing condensation on the rear of your Frigidaire refrigerator, FGHC2331PF. If the unit has been installed near any type of heat source you could see condensation build up. Now if the appliance is not located near a heat source, I would recommend having a technician come out to properly diagnose and repair the refrigerator. Hope this is helpful. -Matt

It seems like the indoor fan is not running. Quite a few split systems have a fuse on the indoor board. It will require stripping off the outer cover of the indoor unit and removal of the electronic box cover. The indoor board is in there. The fuse may be replaceable or it may be a type that is soldered on which makes it virtually non replaceable. ( A new indoor board will be required) Make sure all power is turned off or disconnected before you do anything. Another possibility is the fan motor start capacitor has failed. Try this first before stripping the unit. When the unit is turned on and the outdoor unit has started, give the indoor fan barrel a flick with your finger to start it spinning, if it keeps spinning and the error doesn't appear, it would indicate that the fan motor start capacitor has failed. The capacitors on indoor units are normally small black square boxes with 2 terminals on it. These capacitors are mounted inside or close to where the indoor electronic box is. Again, make sure all power is disconnected or turned off at the meter box before you do any disassembly.

if your frigidaire is not a inverter,he doesn-t work at outside temperature down -5.if it is a inverter you don-t have enought freon .

Let it stand in the on position at least an hour to check it's not going through a self defrost cycle. If the temp display then doesn't change and the compressor doesn't run check you have power to the compressor and condenser fan

Sounds like you lost one of your fans if air is circulating in the room its the condenser fan. Thats what blows across the condenser coil to the outside. It may just be a capacitor thats what helps the fan get started but usually if the fan is popping capacitors there is something wrong with the fan but at the same time capacitors do just go bad. hope this helps let me know.

check for dust on the condenser coil or if it has a condenser fan is prob not spinning try to free it up by turning it by hand now that's if it has a fan on the outside of the freezer

hi there,
check the capacitor of your condenser fan,if busted replace,although thats the common causes of hummimg motor,it can't start,consider also after replacing capacitor still hum,check the motor start winding,and the supply from the source of relay in control panel.have a nice day
