CORRECTION
RESET
PCB Element Fault
E 1
Intervention of the
high limit thermostat
(TL).
Boiler shuts off.
Check for any obstructions
in the piping. Ensure
sufficient flow.
MANUAL - Pushbutton
under cap, located to the
left of the E8 controller.
E 2
Insufficient gas
pressure.
Boiler will not run.
Check gas supply to the
unit and ensure minimum
3.5" w.c. at high fire
AUTOMATIC
E 4
No flame detected
during the ignition
phase.
Boiler will not remain
lit after 3 attempts.
Watch ignition through
viewport. Ensure correct
120V wiring to the unit.
Clean or replace flame rod.
MANUAL - Clear fault and
retry ignition.
E 5
Loss of flame signal
during boiler
operation.
Boiler fails after
establishing flame
Ensure sufficient gas
pressure and flow during
high fire operation and
with any other connected
gas equpiment running.
Check and clean flame rod.
AUTOMATIC - Clear fault
and retry ignition.
E 6
Over high water
temperature detected
by the heating sensor
(SR) (>203°F).
Boiler shuts off.
Check for any obstructions
in the piping. Ensure
sufficient flow.
AUTOMATIC - After
