Error Code E202 / 202 – Compressor Overload / Overcurrent
If your Samsung air conditioner displays E202 (or 202), it often indicates compressor overload or overcurrent protection. This is a serious protection code designed to prevent damage when the system detects abnormal compressor current draw.
Causes can include compressor strain, dirty outdoor coils increasing load, fan faults, capacitor failure, refrigerant imbalance, or electrical supply problems. Symptoms include shutdown under load, repeated restart attempts, or the unit failing to cool effectively.
Because compressor overload faults can become costly if ignored, prompt diagnosis is strongly recommended.
