Possible Causes

Tripped breaker, Blown internal fuse on Dettson control, Faulty service switch, Loose power wiring

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Electrical work should be done with power off at the breaker. Use a non-contact voltage tester if available.

  • Check breaker and switch: Verify the boiler circuit breaker is ON and the local service switch near the Dettson boiler is in the ON position.
  • Inspect power cord and wiring: Look for damaged cables or loose connections at the boiler junction box.
  • Internal fuse: Many Dettson controls have a small replaceable fuse. With power OFF, locate and visually inspect the fuse. Replace only with the same type and rating if blown.
  • Professional diagnosis: If power is present at the boiler but the display remains dead, the control board or transformer may be faulty and should be replaced by a technician.
