    Look inside the filter probably there is show alarm codes. What is the outside temperature ?Maybe cant make the defrost cycle or is too cold outside.

    Radiohead,

    E4 = Compressor overload.

    Cycle power off / on. Check all connections, filter, refrigerant charge etc,

    Good luck.

    Hey Baycuclaudyu,

    Outside temps are going from +3 to -2c
    the system fault seems to effect the unit after it has been on for some time,
    so could be a defrost problem,
    Can the defrost time \ temp limit be extended to help clear a build up on the outdoor unit??

    Radiohead,

    Also check all sensors for shorts and lose connections. If the unit has a phase protection board with a discharge temp sensor the system may have faulted on high discharge temp.

    Regards MQFS OZ
