Toshiba 03 fault code
Toshiba air conditioning
What it means
OPERATION + TIMER flashing 5 Hz: protective circuit, OTHERS (including compressor)
Stage-one block code. Toshiba: "Protective circuit operation for others (including compressor)". The compressor sits in this block, so treat it as the serious one of the four.

Now the harder half: proving what caused it
03 names a symptom, not a root cause. In the app, the same code opens a guided investigation: what to measure first, the expected values for your exact model, and an honest verdict — including “nothing in this machine is broken” when that's what the readings say.
