What EH 0A means on a Perfect Aire
The indoor board read its memory but the stored model parameters are invalid. Usually a surge or a board that was never programmed.
On this platform, EH 0A is a fault: something has failed or is disconnected and needs diagnosis.
Common causes
- A surge or brownout corrupted the stored data.
- A replacement board not programmed for the model.
- A failed indoor board.
How to fix it yourself
Work through the checks below first; they resolve most cases. If they do not, the repair itself may need a technician.
- Reset the system: switch the breaker (or the outdoor disconnect) off, wait a full five minutes so the boards fully discharge, then switch it back on and restart from the remote.
- If the code comes straight back after a reset, the fault is real and not a glitch.
- If the board was recently replaced it needs the model parameters written with the service tool.
Switch off power at the breaker before opening either unit. Capacitors in the outdoor unit hold a charge for several minutes after power is cut.
When to call a technician
If two resets do not clear it, the indoor board needs reprogramming or replacement.

Yes. Turn the system off at the breaker for five minutes, then restart it. If EH 0A comes back, the fault is real and needs the checks above.

The unit will usually refuse to run, or run with reduced output, until the fault is cleared. Repeated resets do not fix anything and can mask a problem that is getting worse.
