•Leave external boiler thermostat connection wires disconnected from boiler.

•Troubleshoot the external thermostat circuit until you find the source of the stray voltage. (Pay close attention to the wiring connections to 3-wire zone valves.)

•Correct the problem and repeat the voltmeter test above, verifying there is no longer a voltage reading under any condition in the external thermostat circuit.

•If no voltage is found under any condition of the external thermostat circuit, connect the two boiler thermostat connection leads together (or jumper the boiler aquastat T-T terminals).

• Turn off power to the boiler for 1 minute.

• Turn on power and allow boiler to cycle.

Do the TSTAT and POWER lights still flash?

No

 

Yes

 

 

 

 

•Boiler should now operate per the normal sequence of operation shown in Figure 24, page 37.

•Replace control module.

•Retest.
