How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before inspection.

  • Power reset: Disconnect power for at least 10 minutes to allow the control to fully reset, then restore power and observe.
  • Inspect wiring harnesses: Open the control compartment and gently tug each connector to ensure it is locked in place. Look for any chafed or pinched wires.
  • Check for moisture: Dry any condensation or water near the control board and sensors. Correct any leaks that may be dripping onto electronics.
  • Review recent events: If the error appeared after a power outage or storm, consider using a surge protector in the future.

If E20 returns frequently, a technician should run full diagnostics and may need to replace the main control PCB.
