Always first:
- Unplug from the socket.
1. Remove the casing
First, loosen the screws on the front and sides. Then remove the filter from the appliance. Next, loosen all the screws at the back. If needed, remove the water stop. Carefully lift the casing and take it off.
2. Remove the old temperature sensor
Loosen the screws of the motherboard cover and remove the cover. Then work out which temperature sensor you want to replace, as some air conditioners have multiple temperature sensors. Now disconnect the temperature sensor from the motherboard and take it out of the air conditioner.
3. Install the new temperature sensor
Reconnect the temperature sensor to the motherboard. Put the cable and temperature sensor back in the position of the old one. Then put the motherboard cover back and tighten the cover screws again.
4. Put the casing back
Put the casing back on the appliance. Tighten all the screws on the back, sides, and front again. Put the filter back and refit the water stop if needed.
