Possible Causes

Failed DHW NTC sensor, Loose sensor in cylinder pocket or plate heat exchanger, Broken sensor cable, Control board input fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Isolate power and water supply if opening DHW components.

  • 1. Locate DHW sensor: On combi Brötje boilers, the DHW NTC is usually mounted on the plate heat exchanger. On system boilers with cylinder, it may be in a sensor pocket on the cylinder.
  • 2. Check seating: Ensure the sensor is fully inserted into the pocket or firmly attached to the heat exchanger surface with thermal paste if specified.
  • 3. Inspect wiring and connector: Look for damage or loose plugs at the PCB.
  • 4. Test sensor: Measure resistance and compare with Brötje DHW NTC specifications. Replace if faulty.
