AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS

The face plate computer has a self8diagnostic function for the electrical system (except input power and water meter). The

computer monitors the electronic components and circuits for cor8

rect operation. If a malfunction occurs, an error code appears in the face plate display.

The chart below shows the error codes that could appear, and the possible defects for each code.

While an error code appears in the display, all face plate buttons are inoperable except the SELECT button. The SELECT button remains operational so the service person can make the MANUAL INITIATE ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS to further isolate the defect, and check the water meter.
