SOURCE: Remove and relocate split air conditioner

The simplest way of explaining this is as per the following. On your outdoor compressor unit there should be two pipes, one smaller diameter [high pressure] and a larger diameter pipe [low pressure]. Turn your A/C on inside the house and then shut off the smaller diameter pipe. Run the unit for a around 3 to 4 minutes and then check if the cooling is reducing from the unit inside the house. When you feel room temperature air [not cool] being emitted from the indoor unit shut off the larger diameter pipe and turn off unit. Isolate electrics, disconnect A/C piping and immediately seal the piping with good quality tape to prevent egress of dirt. When re-installing a quick purge of gas is usually only required to clear the lines if they were sealed properly and kept clean. Ideally running a vacuum pump is recommended but if care was taken then it may not be needed, as in many of my installations.

SOURCE: Mistral Air-con split system shows F6 fault! What does it mean?

F6 INDICATION MAY MEAN THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BLOWER MOTOR. WHEN THE BLOWER MOTOR GETS HEATED UP (WHEN ITS WINDING BECOMES WEAK) THIS MAY HAPPEN. SO U GET UR BLOWER MOTOR AND PCB BOARD CHECKED.

SOURCE: I have a TCL split system air conditioner with error code E2

I have the same problem with my TCL unit. I have had the Tech out to day and I am told it is an internal senor in the unit that fails. I am informed by the tech that this is a very common fault with the TCL unit. Also if you live in Australia like me prepare yourself for a fight with TCL due to them not liking to honour the 5 year warranty. I would not recommend this product to anyone

SOURCE: Hi FxiYa My Sister's Sharp Split

This may just be a "Glitch", to see if you can get it working properly again....
Please try this, The manual says to clean filter and unplug unit, plug unit back in and code will be reset. If that procedure doesn't work, then try below,
This time, Unplug unit, clean filter, HOLD DOWN power button and CONTINUE HOLDING while plugging unit back in. Unit will beep. Unplug again, plug back in and resume normal operation.

Above is a link so you can download your manuals, and peruse them for any assistance?
To be able to perform any DIY repairs one simply must have a service manual, this will as well as indicating troubleshooting steps, will also provide those all important spare parts numbers, should one have to order spare parts.

Now if, you are DIYing and this problem isn't anything to do with above, then you most likely have either some sort of sensor, or thermostat or main board problem? Unfortunately the symptoms described are pretty generic, and really it's pretty hard to make a determination without actually examining the unit. One must perform a set of troubleshooting steps to isolate and hopefully remedy any situation. These steps are only available from a service manual, as they change from model to model,make to make.
A/C's have many sections to them, and quite a few things can stop operation, or cause a malfunction, it will most likely be best if you can take the unit (I know that maybe a hassle, but it would be the cheapest way, else get a service call?) to an honest qualified person, and get it looked at, at least obtain a "Quote", as to costings and go from there.
The cost of repair, if indeed parts are available, may be more than the unit is worth? I am getting this more and more with my own customers, as often theses days the cost of repair, availability, or lack of, more to the point, often, precludes, or exceeds or comes close to, the cost of a new unit, as silly as that may seem? so make sure you only get that "Quote" first, as related.

SOURCE: i have problems in my sharp air conditioner model

Sounds like the blower wheel or coil are dirty/moldy. The unit probably just needs to be cleaned properly.
