If you are having issues with your TCL product or if you encounter errors while using your home appliances, then you might encounter error code e9 on your device’s screen. If that happens, it can occur because there is an issue with your device or it can occur because your power supply is experiencing an issue. Sometimes, it is possible that common device errors or server problems cause this error.
Usually, you need to perform a few troubleshooting steps to fix this error.
Error E9 typically means power module of drive and module fault. This is a common error that can be resolved by checking the fault light and replacing the faulty drive module. A possible cause of Error E9 is a faulty drive module. The other cause is a power supply failure. In this case, you need to change the power supply.
Check the drive modules for damaged pins or connections on both sides of the board. Check for any loose connections and clean with a fine-grit sandpaper. Clean any burnt parts on the board with a compressed air can.
If the power supply is faulty, then you need to replace it. To do this, remove all screws that hold the cover of the power supply and disconnect the power cord from the AC connector of the power supply. Take out the power supply by removing all screws that hold it in place. Now disconnect cables from the motherboard. Check and clean any dust that may be inside the power supply using compressed air.
Connect the multimeter between two pins on the drive module and one pin on the power supply to check for voltage drop. If there is voltage drop, replace the power supply. If the drive module is still not working, replace it with a new one. This is usually the cause of Error E9. Your air conditioner will continue to run as long as the power supply and drive module are working.
The final thing you can do is call customer service to get this error fixed. You can also contact them by calling their customer service number or by visiting their website.
