THERMO KING TRUCK & TRAILER UNIT ALARM CODES

THIS DOCUMENT SHOWS ALL CURRENT ALARM CODES FOR THERMO KING TRUCK AND TRAILER UNITS. NOT ALL CODES ARE POSSIBLE ON ANY INDIVIDUAL UNIT. IF THE ALARM APPLIES TO A MULTI-TEMP ZONE, THAT ZONE WILL BE IDENTIFIED. BE SURE TO RECORD ALL ALARMS THAT OCCUR. THEY ARE VALUABLE TO THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN. ALARMS MARKED WITH AN ASTERISK (*) MAY EXIST WITH ALARM CODE 84. THESE ALARMS MAY CLEAR AUTOMATICALLY.
