Possible Causes

Tripped circuit breaker, Loose power wiring at thermostat backplate, Blown internal fuse, Failed boiler transformer (for 24V models)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Danger: Power circuits may be at mains voltage. Always isolate at the main breaker and verify with a tester before touching any wires.

  • Step 1 – Check breaker and switches:
    • Verify that the boiler/thermostat circuit breaker is ON.
    • Check any local isolation switches near the boiler.
  • Step 2 – Inspect thermostat connection:
    • Remove the thermostat from its wall plate.
    • Ensure it is correctly seated and that connector pins are not bent.
  • Step 3 – Measure supply voltage:
    • Use a multimeter to check for the correct voltage at the thermostat power terminals or wall plate.
    • If no voltage is present, trace back to the boiler or power supply.
  • Step 4 – Check boiler transformer (if applicable):
    • On 24V systems, verify that the boiler’s low-voltage transformer is outputting the correct voltage.
  • Step 5 – Replace thermostat if power is present but display is dead:
    • If correct voltage is present at the thermostat but it remains blank, the internal electronics are likely failed.
    • Replace the Protherm smart thermostat.
