Daikin aircon LE error code
Use this Daikin LE error code guide to decide when to stop resetting, what to capture, and what to check before parts are quoted.
What does Daikin LE mean?
Daikin LE is listed as malfunction of igniter system 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.
Voltage, current, fuse, module, or power-supply protection has been triggered.
Loose connector, damaged harness, or outdoor electrical component fault.
PCB or inverter-module issue after power and load checks are confirmed.
What to do now
Use these steps before another reset or parts quote.
Stop using the unit if LE returns
Stop repeated restarts if LE returns, trips power, smells burnt, or the outdoor unit runs unusually hot.
Reset LE once
Capture the LE display, then reset once only if there is no burning smell, repeated trip, or hot outdoor unit.

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 LE, take a clear display photo. | Confirm whether LE is voltage, current, module, fuse, or protection related. |
| Capture the Daikin indoor and outdoor model stickers so the correct family row is used. | Check incoming voltage, connectors, inverter module, and current draw under load. |
| Note whether one room, several rooms, or the whole system is affected, plus whether it returns after one reset. | Confirm downstream loads before replacing electrical boards or modules. |
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 LE. | The affected room, indoor board path, wiring route, or local component should be checked first. |
| Several rooms or the outdoor unit show the same LE 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. |
Electrical module or wiring decision
Daikin LE needs voltage, current, module, and load checks before parts are quoted. The repair path depends on whether the fault is supply-side, wiring-side, or board-side.
Supply voltage and load checks separate building-side issues from unit-side faults.
Module or inverter faults need measured current and voltage evidence.
Repeated electrical trips should not be cleared repeatedly without diagnosis.
