How Trane Heat Pump LED Codes Work
Every Trane heat pump has a control board with diagnostic LED lights—usually inside the outdoor or indoor unit’s access panel. These codes help homeowners and technicians quickly identify system faults or operational status. Each pattern of flashes means something specific, from normal operation (a steady light) to major system faults (multiple flashes). Knowing how to interpret these codes can speed up troubleshooting and minimize downtime.
