How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF power at the breaker before accessing wiring.

Steps to troubleshoot:

  • 1. Check supply voltage and wiring:
    • Verify tight connections at L and N terminals.
    • Measure voltage to ensure it is within specification.
  • 2. Test on different circuit:
    • If possible, temporarily power the thermostat from a known good circuit to rule out supply issues.
  • 3. Replace thermostat:
    • If supply is stable but display remains dim or flickers, the internal backlight or regulator is failing.
    • Replace the thermostat.
