hey there guys ...bought :alarm: a sharp a/c 8000 btu remote control unit, don't use
remote. anyway after the unit runs about 20min, it will cut off and prompt a e1 on control panel....this means to clean filter, well it wasn't even dirty. so i brought the unit back to store, now 1 month later, same problem same unit, but!!!! my daughter's is working fine in her bedroom, same unit. so i can't see 2 units having same problem. when unit is on it works fine, then cuts out after 15-20 min. any help? thanks guys. powers off but outlet is still live not a breaker problem.i unplug unit wait 10sec,then plug back in unit will run then shut down.but will always restart with no problem
