9. Troubleshooting the error codes:
Listed below are potential diagnostic error codes which will appear on the LCD display in case of a malfunction.
Testing the Sensors
A good quality test meter capable of measuring up to 5,000 k
Ω
(1 k
Ω
= 1000
Ω
) is required to measure the sensor resistance. In
addition to this, the actual temperature must be measured with a good quality digital thermometer.
First measure the temperature using the thermometer and then measure the resistance of the sensor at the Bumble Bee. The wires
from the sensor must not be connected to the circulator while this test is performed. The wiring terminals are easily removed by
pulling them from the circulator. Using the chart below, estimate the temperature measured by the sensor. The sensor and ther-
mometer readings should be close. If the test meter reads a very high resistance, there may be a broken wire, a poor wiring con-
nection or a defective sensor. If the resistance is very low, the wiring may be shorted, there may be moisture in the sensor or the
sensor may be defective. To test for a defective sensor, measure the resistance directly at the sensor location.
ERROR CODE*
DESCRIPTION
CORRECTIVE ACTION
SENSOR 1 MISSING
Supply sensor disconnected.
Reconnect sensor.
SENSOR 2 MISSING
Return sensor disconnected.
Reconnect sensor.
SENSOR 1 SHORTED
Bad sensor.
Replace sensor.
SENSOR 2 SHORTED
Bad sensor.
Replace sensor.
AC INPUT UNDER VOLTAGE
Low voltage problem.
Check power supply.
AC INPUT OVER VOLTAGE
High voltage problem.
Check power supply.
LOCKED ROTOR
Probable locked rotor or motor failure.
Replace pump.
MOTOR OVER CURRENT
Possible locked rotor.
Replace pump.
OVER TEMPERATURE
PC Board overheating.
Pump will reduce current and speed until PCB tem-
perature is acceptable. If speed falls below 1650
RPM, pump will stop on safety. Cycle AC power
OFF/ON to restart.
