Possible Causes
Broken sensor lead, Disconnected sensor plug, Sensor element failed open, Loose terminal at PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before opening the unit.
Steps:
- Check plug connection: Ensure the sensor plug is fully seated on the PCB header.
- Continuity test: With the sensor unplugged, measure resistance across its leads. Infinite resistance indicates a broken sensor; replace it.
- Check for breaks: Flex the cable gently while measuring; intermittent readings suggest an internal break in the cable.
Note: Always route replacement sensor cables away from sharp edges and hot surfaces to prevent future failures.
