Solution
32
Error heat source sen-
sor T8
Short circuit/disconnec-
tion in the sensor
possible
The internal temperature sensor
for the brine outlet temperature
is faulty or not plugged in cor-
rectly on the circuit board.
>
Check the quality of plug contact on
the circuit board and on the cable har-
ness.
>
Check sensors for correct operation
(resistance measurement based on VR
11 characteristics,
¬
Tab.
17.2
).
>
Replace the sensors.
33
Error heat circuit pressure
sensor
Short circuit/disconnec-
tion in the pressure sensor
_
The pressure sensor in the heat-
ing circuit is faulty or not prop-
erly plugged in.
>
Check the quality of plug contact on
the circuit board and on the cable har-
ness.
>
Check the pressure sensor for correct
operation.
>
Replace the pressure sensor.
34

erly plugged into the PCB.
>
Check the quality of plug contact on
the circuit board and on the cable har-
ness.
>
Check sensors for correct operation
(resistance measurement based on VR
11 characteristics,
¬

>
Check the Pro-E plug on the circuit
board, check the connection line.
>
Replace the sensors.
45
Error DHW tank sensor SP
Short circuit/disconnec-
tion in the sensor
possible

connected correctly.
>
Check the Pro-E plug on the circuit
board.
>
Check sensors for correct operation
(resistance measurement based on VR
10 characteristics,
¬
Tab. 17.1
).
>
Replace the sensors.
