Error Codes (undefined): Troubleshooting, Fixes & Prevention Tips explained below.

What Does the dE Code Mean?

dE stands for “Door Error.” The system displays this code when it detects that a door, access panel, or lid is not properly closed or the door sensor is malfunctioning. In air conditioners, this may occur if a service panel is open or the indoor unit cover isn’t secured correctly.

air-conditioner - What Causes the dE Code?

  • Door or cover is not fully closed
  • Misaligned or loose door latches
  • Faulty door switch or sensor
  • Obstruction preventing full closure
  • Damaged hinge or mounting hardware
  • Loose internal wiring or moisture on sensor
