What the E570 error code actually means

Your Samsung air conditioner has detected a problem with an internal sensor that monitors the high-voltage electrical circuit powering the compressor speed control system. This is not a simple reset issue and typically points to a failed electronic component inside the outdoor unit. A qualified technician should inspect and repair it before the system is run again.

Questions people ask about E570

What does E570 mean on a Samsung air conditioner?
E570 indicates an Inverter DC Link sensor error in the outdoor unit. The DC link is the high-voltage DC bus inside the inverter drive that powers the variable-speed compressor. This code means the sensor monitoring that bus has detected an out-of-range value or has lost its signal entirely. It points to a hardware fault in the inverter section that requires professional diagnosis.
Is it safe to keep running my air conditioner with an E570 error?
No, continuing to operate the unit with an active E570 fault is not recommended. The error indicates a problem in the inverter drive circuit, and running the system could cause additional damage to the inverter board, compressor, or other components. Power the unit off at the breaker until a technician can diagnose the fault.
How much does it cost to repair a Samsung air conditioner E570 error?
Repair costs vary depending on the specific failed component. Inverter control board replacement typically falls in the range of $200 to $600 including parts and labor. Capacitor replacement at the component level is generally less expensive, while an IPM or compressor drive module replacement can push costs higher. Getting a diagnostic inspection first will help determine the exact scope and cost of the repair.
Can I fix the E570 error myself?
This error involves the high-voltage inverter circuit inside the outdoor unit, where DC link voltages can reach several hundred volts and capacitors can hold that charge for several minutes after power is removed. Component-level repair requires proper tools, discharge procedures, and electrical knowledge. Most homeowners should not attempt this repair, and it is best handled by a certified HVAC or refrigeration technician.
Will resetting the unit clear the E570 error?
A power reset may temporarily clear the displayed code, but if an underlying hardware fault exists such as a failed capacitor, damaged board, or wiring problem, the error will return once the unit attempts to operate. A reset is not a repair, and the root cause must be identified and corrected to resolve E570 permanently.
