Possible Causes

Incorrect wiring of Termet remote controller, Broken communication cable, Incompatible external control signal, Faulty communication interface on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before altering control wiring.

  • Check wiring diagram: Refer to the Termet installation manual and verify that external controls are wired to the correct terminals with correct polarity.
  • Inspect cable: Look for damage to the remote controller cable. Replace if cut or crushed.
  • Isolate external controls: Temporarily disconnect external controllers and reset the heater. If E18 clears, the issue is with the external device or wiring.
  • Interface test: If E18 remains with all external controls disconnected, the PCB communication interface may be faulty and require replacement.
