This fault for 18VS,19VS/V-HP/AC units indicates that the system is operating at a reduced capacity due to low DC voltage. This limits the speed of components like the compressor or fans.
Click steps to track your progress.
Check your home's main electrical panel for any signs of unstable power or tripped breakers.
Turn off power to the outdoor unit at the circuit breaker for 30 seconds, then restore.
Ensure external wiring connections are secure (if safely accessible and you have electrical experience).
If the low speed limiting persists, contact an electrician or qualified HVAC technician to check power supply and internal components.
