Measure incoming power 208v 

 

 

Hi Limit Thermostat 

 

Terminals are normally closed, if open push in reset 
button. 
If button will not reset replace hi limit. 
Hi limit opens at 60C 

 

 

Unit will not turn on 
 
 

 

On – Off Switch

 

 

Check continuity between switch terminals. 
Replace switch as needed. 

 

 

Contactor 

 

Check for supply voltage to contactor contacts, if no 
voltage present trace back to on-off switch. 
If voltage is present, check to insure contacts are 
closing, replace as needed. 

 

 

Solid State Relay  
(Current limiting) 

 

Check for supply voltage to relay contact, if no voltage 
present trace back to contactor. 
Check for output voltage, if no output voltage check 
percentage dial on relay is set to 50%. 
If no output voltage present replace as needed. 

 

 

No Stand By Heat 

 

Elements 

 

Check the amp draw on each element for proper load. 
Check specification plate for rating information. 
Check individual elements for opens, shorts and 
proper resistance 56ohms. 

 

 

Micro Switch 

 

Check continuity of the NC held open switch with 
sufficient weight on surface, if no continuity, replace 
switch. 

 

 

Solid State Relay  
(Current limiting) 

 

Check for supply voltage to relay coil (this will be 
indicated by two lamps on the unit) if no voltage 
present trace back to contactor and/or the micro 
switch. 
Check for output voltage, if no output voltage check 
percentage dial on relay is set to 50%. 
If voltage is present at coil check contacts are closing, 
replace as needed. 

 

 

No Full Power 

 

Elements 

 

Check the amp draw on each power leg for proper 
load. Check specification plate for rating information. 
Check individual elements for opens, shorts and 
proper resistance 56ohms. 

 

 

Hi Limit Trips 

 

Cooling Fan Motor 

 

Check to see cooling fan is operational, if not check 
for voltage to motor, if no voltage present trace back 
to on – off switch, if voltage is present replace motor.
