Possible Causes
Inlet valve coil open or shorted, Wiring to inlet valve damaged, Control board triac/relay failure, Aqua-stop device malfunction
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power and close the water tap.
- Check water supply basics: Confirm the water tap is open and inlet hose is not kinked (as for E1). If supply is fine, the issue is likely electrical.
- Visual inspection: Access the inlet valve/aqua-stop connection and inspect for burn marks, melted plastic, or loose connectors.
- Do not bypass safety devices: Never attempt to bypass the aqua-stop or valve safety features.
- Professional diagnosis: Measuring coil resistance and checking the control board output requires electrical expertise. Contact V-ZUG service for repair.
