    Since you have both RAT fault and high discharge, the problem is most likely with the evaporator. Either the sensor is bad and is not allowing to operate properly, the evaporator blower may be the issue, evaporator coil could be the issue. Have you tried manual defrosts? If you do, and a lot of water comes out, it’s just iced up due to operating conditions. If not much comes out, you need to get it looked at. Could be just a sensor failure causing it.

    Are you loaded? What is set point?

    As mentioned do a switch off for a minute then back on, then a manual defrost.

    We’ve had a few newer units do similar when we see a rapid outside air temp rise over 4-6 hours. Turning off then back on fixed most of these issues, however they would not shut off, but just coded.

    I️ am empty. Have to pick up load in a few hours with -10 degree pre-cooled.

    I’ve tried to do manual defrost but it does not let me: “cannot start defrost cycle”.

    Sounds like it has issues that’s going to require a tech look at it. There’s nothing obstructing the lower interior intake in the nose of the trailer is there? Like plastic or a crushed bulkhead?
