Possible Causes

Inlet and outlet sensors reading out of range relative to each other, Wrong sensor type installed on Thermeau heater, Control board calibration fault, Poor sensor grounding or wiring interference

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before working on sensors or the control board.

  • Compare sensor readings: With the heater off but pump running, the inlet and outlet temperatures should be very close. If the display shows a large difference, one sensor is likely faulty.
  • Verify correct parts: Confirm that any recently replaced sensors are the correct Thermeau part numbers and not generic substitutes with different resistance curves.
  • Inspect wiring routing: Ensure sensor wires are not bundled tightly with high-voltage or ignition wires, which can introduce electrical noise.
  • Replace suspect sensor: Swap the suspected bad sensor with a known-good Thermeau sensor if available, or replace both inlet and outlet sensors to eliminate mismatch.
  • Control board check: If new sensors do not resolve F08, the control board may be misreading inputs and should be evaluated or replaced by a qualified technician.
