Reset power to Heater and
retry. Heater should fire.
Does the Digital
Temperature Display show
Error Code “E05” or “E06”?
Heater starts and runs OK,
but temperature of exhaust
climbs to 170°F (77°C)
in 3-5 minutes.
Heater starts after several
tries, exhaust temperature
stays below 150°F (65.5°C)
OR
Heater doesn’t start at all
(exhaust stays cold).
Check pressure and volume
of fuel supply
Check the J5 and J8
connectors for corrosion/
looseness on the male
pins.
Check continuity in wiring
harness between Control
Board and Probe.
Continuity OK?
Disconnect the sensor and
check continuity across its
terminals. Resistance
should see:
= open circuit
0 = shorted
Does sensor check OK?
Clean/tighten pins as
needed.
Reset power to Heater
and retry. Heater should
fire.

Check the temperature at the
water outlet plumbing from the
tridicator and subtract the water
inlet temperature on the LED.
The difference is the
