CHAPTER 7. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
7.1 INTRODUCTION
This troubleshooting guide is intended to aid service/maintenance personnel in isolating the
cause of a fault in a Innovation Water Heater. The troubleshooting procedures contained herein
are presented in tabular form on the following pages. These tables are comprised of three
columns labeled: Fault Indication, Probable Cause and Corrective Action. The numbered items
in the Probable Cause and Corrective Action columns correspond to each other. For example,
Probable Cause No. 1 corresponds to Corrective Action No. 1, etc.
NOTE
The front panel of the C-More Control Box contains an RS232 port which
can be interfaced to a laptop computer or other suitable device. This
RS232 communication feature permits service personnel to view menu
items and data logs which can be useful in isolating faults. Refer to Chapter
7 of this manual for detailed RS232 communication set-up and procedures.
When a fault occurs in the unit, proceed as follows to isolate and correct the fault:
