Possible Causes

Loose communication cable between Crystal Quest display module and valve head, Damaged communication harness, Incompatible firmware versions, Failed communication driver on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug all power sources before handling cables.

  • Inspect cable: Trace the communication cable between the display and valve head. Ensure both ends are fully seated and the cable is not pinched or cut.
  • Power cycle: Disconnect power for 1 minute, then reconnect. Observe if E17 clears.
  • Swap cable: If available, test with a known-good Crystal Quest communication cable.
  • Module replacement: If the error persists, either the display module or main control board is faulty. Replace the suspect module one at a time, starting with the display, then the main board if needed.
