Use the flowchart below to troubleshoot the temperature sensor.
Troubleshooting the thermistor
Start
Disconnect the thermistor to be checked from the circuit board.
Measure the actual temperature of the pipe at the thermistor.
Check the thermistor resistance.

Compare the actual temperature and the temperature that corresponds
to the thermistor resistance to see if there is a discrepancy between them.
Connect the thermistor connector to the circuit board,
check the sensor reading according to the instructions
detailed in section 2 "Checking the sensor status,"
andcheck the temperature difference.
Replace the thermistor.
Replace the control board.
Check for proper connection.
* 1 The table below shows the thermistor numbers and their corresponding connectors.
Check each sensor by disconnecting the corresponding connector.

Pull out the sensor connector from the I/O board.
Do not pull on the lead wire.
.
Measure the resistance with a tester.
.
If the measured value is within ± 10% of the value as shown in the table below, the circuit sensor is normal.
* 3 Use the dip switches and push switches to view the sensor reading on the LED.
