Symptom / Description

FAULT

The program suddenly stops during a heating phase, with an error message linked to the temperature.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

The safety thermostat (TGS) has detected overheating and cut off power to the heater. Possible causes: insufficient water level, faulty NTC probe, or localized overheating heating resistance.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED
1Unplug the device. 2. Verify that the water level in the tank is correct by inspecting the pressure switch and its compression chamber. 3. Test the NTC temperature probe. 4. Inspect the heating element. 5. Once the cause of the overheating has been resolved, reset or replace the TGS.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols
  • !Electrical Safety Protocol: Disconnect 230V electrical mains power before removing appliance side or rear panels.
  • !Ensure tub water or heating chamber has cooled below 30°C before unclipping thermistor probe.
  • !Use CAT III 600V/1000V insulated test probes when tng at PCB edge connectors.
3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks
  • Inspect sensor immersion sleeve for calcification, limescale scale, or thermal paste degradation.
  • Check wiring harness for pinch points, chafing against chassis metal, and terminal pin oxidation.
  • Verify probe is firmly seated in its rubber grommet or bracket inside the water/air circuit.
