Installation Precautions

 

1

 - 

Make sure the system pack is powered Off at  

the GFCI or circuit breaker before starting the 

installation process.

2

 - These instructions apply to system packs with one 

of the following agency prefixes: BP20, BP21, BP501, 

BP6. The agency prefix is noted on the system pack 

identification label (view page 2).

3

 - The M7 temperature sensor connector has a 

locking tab (A). Depress the tab before disconnecting 

the sensor from the circuit board. When installing 

the new heater, make sure the locking tab is 

aligned properly with the circuit board connector. 

Misalignment may cause damage. The connectors are 

small, so a flashlight and magnifying glass can help 

with alignment. 

4

 - The third temperature sensor switch connector has 

alignment tabs (E). Make sure the tabs are aligned 

properly with the circuit board connector.  

Misalignment may cause damage.  

The connectors are small, so a flashlight and 

magnifying glass can help with alignment. 

5A

 -  Find J29 on the wiring diagram (H).  The wiring 

diagram is on the inside surface of the system pack 

cover.  J29 may be at the bottom right of the diagram 

of the board, or more toward the bottom center  

of the board.

5B

 -  Confirm that on the wiring diagram “HTR DISBL” 

or “HTR DSBL” is written near  J29 ( I ). It may be 

above or below the “J29” text and may be on the 

same side of the jumper picture or on the other side 

of the jumper picture.  If “HTR DISBL” or “HTR DSBL” 

(abbreviations for Heater Disable) is not near J29, then 

the 3S heater is incompatible with this system pack.

5C

 - If something is already connected to J29,  

please contact our technical support at  

[email protected].     

6

 - Each connector is labeled on the system pack circuit 

board. The text is small, so a flashlight and magnifying 

glass can help with identification. 

7

 - Do not bump or bend the heater posts.

8

 - Do not pull or apply unnecessary pressure  

to the heater connector wires.
