Possible Causes

Open circuit in room thermostat wiring, Incorrect bridging of external demand terminals, Faulty external thermostat or relay, Misconfigured control parameters

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Isolate power before working on low-voltage control wiring.

  • Check room thermostat: Ensure it is calling for heat (set temperature above room temperature) and that its display is on.
  • Inspect wiring at boiler: Verify that the external demand terminals on the Wolf boiler are correctly wired or bridged according to the installation manual.
  • Test with a bridge (technician): A competent person can temporarily bridge the demand terminals to see if the boiler responds, confirming a thermostat or wiring fault.
  • Reconfigure controls: Check that the boiler is set to accept external control in its parameter menu.
