09Fault

DEYE inverter error 09 (F009)

IGBT damaged by excessive drop voltage

Also displayed as F009 / F09 on some models.

Fault — the inverter cuts its output and the red LED stays solid until the fault is cleared.

The exact meaning depends on your model:

SUN G01P3-EU-BM8 Series

InverterFault

Also applies to:SUN-120K-G01P3-EU-BM8SUN-125K-G01P3-EU-BM8SUN-130K-G01P3-EU-BM8SUN-135K-G01P3-EU-BM8SUN-136K-G01P3-EU-BM8SUN-7K-G02P1-EU-AM2SUN-7.5K-G02P1-EU-AM2SUN-8K-G02P1-EU-AM2+3

What it means

IGBT damaged by excessive drop voltage — An IGBT power switch shows an excessive voltage drop. The manual notes this code has hardly ever appeared in the field.

Cause: An IGBT power switch exhibits an excessive on-state voltage drop, indicating the switch has been damaged.

How to fix it

Restart the inverter; if the code persists after the restart, contact your installer or Deye service and provide the inverter serial number, the installation date and the displayed error code.

GB-A HV Battery

BatteryFault

Also applies to:GB-A

What it means

ALARM_ID_CELL_OVER_VOLT_LEV_2 — Cell overvoltage.

Cause: A single cell exceeded the level-2 over-voltage limit during charging - charge voltage too high or cell imbalance.

How to fix it

  1. Stop charging and check the PCS charge-voltage settings; allow the BMS to balance the cells with a low-current full charge.
  2. Contact Deye support if it recurs.
