Daikin aircon EH error code
Use this Daikin EH error code guide to decide whether the display is only a status row, what to capture, and when a real fault still needs diagnosis.
What does Daikin EH mean?
Daikin EH is listed as malfunction of cooling water pump in Ceiling Cassette, Ceiling Suspended, Inverter Split rows such as SM-TS3 matrix overview. The loaded row is source-backed by official diagnostic material. Confirm the exact model, series, or signal row before accepting a parts quote.
A status or reminder row is being shown rather than a confirmed breakdown.
The display may need clearing or monitoring, depending on the model manual.
A separate fault should be checked if cooling is still abnormal.
What to do now
Use these steps before another reset or parts quote.
Treat it as a fault signal
If EH is only a status row, monitor it; if cooling is still abnormal, treat that symptom as the fault.
Reset EH once
Capture the EH display and check whether cooling is actually abnormal before resetting or booking a repair.

Source-specific guidance
These diagnostic-reference notes help match the code to the exact model. Electrical, refrigerant, wiring, resistance, and component checks are technician work, not DIY steps.
| Source detail | What it says |
|---|---|
| Source repair action | Stop the system if it smells burnt, leaks, or trips power; note the exact model and code before booking diagnosis. |
| Singapore / model note | Official Daikin SM-TS3 page-1 matrix row. The matrix gives the broad malfunction wording, but not the detailed cause table; confirm the exact model and installed accessories before treating it as final. |
What to check before repair
Use this split to separate safe evidence capture from the tests a technician should prove before quoting parts.
| You can check | Technician should confirm |
|---|---|
| Before resetting EH, take a clear display photo. | Confirm whether EH is a status row or an active fault on that model. |
| Capture the Daikin indoor and outdoor model stickers so the correct family row is used. | Check if cooling, fan, or drainage performance is actually abnormal. |
| Note whether one room, several rooms, or the whole system is affected, plus whether it returns after one reset. | Clear the reminder or status only when the manual confirms it is not a fault. |
What changes the next step
These clues decide whether the first check is room-side, shared outdoor-side, refrigerant-side, source-table, or model-family confirmation.
| What you see | What it points to |
|---|---|
| Only one indoor unit shows EH. | The affected room, indoor board path, wiring route, or local component should be checked first. |
| Several rooms or the outdoor unit show the same EH fault. | The shared outdoor side, power path, communication trunk, or refrigerant circuit needs priority checking. |
| The fault returns immediately after one reset. | Start with the source-row diagnostic branch before approving parts. |
| The model family is different from the row you found online. | Use the model or series filter first; same-looking codes can still belong to different diagnostic tables. |
| The model belongs to Ceiling Cassette, Ceiling Suspended, Inverter Split rows such as SM-TS3 matrix overview. | The loaded row is source-backed by official diagnostic material. Use the matching source row before quoting parts. |
Monitor or diagnose decision
Daikin EH may not need repair if the manual treats it as a status row. If cooling is still abnormal, treat it as a separate diagnostic issue.
Status rows should not trigger parts replacement by themselves.
Cooling symptoms matter more than the display if the manual says no active fault is present.
A separate active fault should be diagnosed if performance remains abnormal.
