ECStartup time over
Name in the manufacturer's documentation (service manual): Startup time over
[1]
In plain words (editorial)
Startup time over – the unit could not finish its startup process within 4 minutes after power on. The service manual checks the indoor/outdoor connecting wire (disconnection, looseness, polarity, diameter and length), overlapping refrigerant addresses and noise on the transmission path; one step is to turn the power off once and on again.
When to call a service technician: Contact your installer or a Mitsubishi Electric service technician.
