Daikin Aircon UH Error Code
Use this Daikin UH error code guide to confirm the source table meaning, capture the reporting equipment and model, and match the service manual before diagnosis. Match the model first; same-looking codes can point to different rows.
What does Daikin UH mean?
Daikin UH is listed as malfunction of system, system abnormality or undefined refrigerant-system address, and auto-address malfunction or addressing inconsistency in mixed model-family source rows, including VRV X RXQ-A(N)R cooling only, VRV IV+ REYQ / REMQ heat recovery, VRV 5-S RXYSA R32, VRV 5 Heat Recovery REMA / REYA R32, and VRV 5 Heat Pump RYMA / RXYA R32. The loaded row is source-backed by official diagnostic material. Do not collapse this code across model families; use the model, series, or system type to choose the right row. Confirm the exact model, series, or signal row before accepting a parts quote.
Choose the matching source row
The same visible code has more than one source-backed meaning. Match the model family, system type, or reporting unit before approving parts.
| Code | What it means | What to check first |
|---|---|---|
| General RA self-diagnosis guide | Malfunction of system | Match this row to the installed model or reporting unit, then use the source-specific checks below. |
| VRV X RXQ-A(N)R cooling only | System abnormality or undefined refrigerant-system address | Match this row to the installed model or reporting unit, then use the source-specific checks below. |
| UH-01 - system | Auto-address malfunction or addressing inconsistency | Check whether the transmission-wired unit count matches the powered unit count, or wait for initialisation to finish. Match the alternating UH-01 display to the system source row. |
| VRV 5-S R32 - UH / VRV 5 Heat Recovery R32 - UH / VRV 5 Heat Pump R32 - UH | Auto-address inconsistency | Correct the F1/F2 interconnection to the BP unit and confirm BP communication is enabled. |

What to do now
Use these steps to record evidence and match the installed model to its service manual before diagnosis or a repair quote.
Record UH and match the service manual
Record UH and stop there; the source table gives no customer reset procedure. Arrange diagnosis with the matching service manual.
No manufacturer reset steps listed for UH
Capture the complete UH error code and model stickers first. The source table lists the meaning but no customer reset procedure; do not treat a generic power-cycle as manufacturer guidance.
Send these to us
UH error code, a clear display photo, Daikin indoor and outdoor model stickers, the controller, gateway, or unit that reported the code, operating mode and affected area, and any power or setting changes made after the code appeared
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.

What to check before repair
The source table establishes the code meaning, not a repair procedure. Capture evidence first; model-specific tests belong to the matching service manual.
| You can check | Technician should confirm |
|---|---|
| Photograph the complete UH error code before taking any action. | Confirm UH exactly and record which controller, gateway, or unit reported it. |
| Capture the Daikin indoor and outdoor model stickers and identify which controller or unit reported it. | Match the indoor and outdoor model stickers, installed family, and reporting equipment to the source scope. |
| The source table provides no customer reset procedure. Preserve the evidence and use the matching service manual for any system action. | Follow the matching service-manual procedure and keep measured test evidence before naming a failed part. |

Source-bounded repair decision
Daikin UH confirms the source-table fault label, not a failed part or repair procedure. Match the installed model to its service manual and require measured diagnostic evidence before approving parts, settings, or refrigerant work.
Whether the reporting controller or unit and exact installed model are confirmed.
What the matching service-manual procedure and measured tests show.
Whether the proposed repair names the evidence for the failed part or condition.
