Possible Causes

Corrupted EEPROM on control board, Power interruption during programming, Control board firmware issue, Internal memory wear‑out

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before removing covers. Avoid static discharge to the PCB.

Steps to try:

  • Factory reset: Perform a full factory reset according to the Novoferm manual (often by holding the program button for an extended period until LEDs change pattern). This clears stored limits and remotes.
  • Reprogram from scratch: After reset, set travel limits and program remotes again following the step‑by‑step procedure.
  • Stable power: Ensure the opener is on a stable mains supply during programming. Avoid switching power off until all steps are complete.

If E8 reappears during or after programming, the control board memory is likely defective. Replace the Novoferm control PCB.
