Error Code E162 / 162 – Outdoor Temperature Sensor Fault
Samsung Error Code E162 (or 162) usually indicates an outdoor temperature sensor fault. This sensor helps the system regulate compressor performance and protect against overheating. If it fails, you may see shutdowns, reduced performance, or irregular cooling/heating.
Outdoor sensors can fail due to exposure, wiring corrosion, or age. If the system repeatedly displays E162, professional diagnosis is recommended to prevent ongoing performance issues.
