DC High-Limit Thermostat: Left
The left DC high-limit thermostat serve as a safety measure
in the event that the diesel-burner continues to operate after
the maximum operating temperature is reached. The high-
limit thermostats allow the current for the diesel-burner to
pass through them until the boiler tank reaches a temperature
of 215°F. Should this temperature be reached, the left high-
limit thermostat blocks the current to the diesel-burner's
controller, which prevents the diesel-burner from operating.
Troubleshoot the Left DC high-limit thermostat if the follow-
ing condition has occurred:
The diesel-burner fails to operate.
The diesel-burner switch light flashes a 6 fault code.
Troubleshooting:
1. Place a jumper wire between the black (#15) and black
(#16) wires on the diesel-burner's wire harness to by-
pass the high-limit thermostats. Check the Aqua-Hot for
normal operation.
NOTE: Bypassing the high-limit thermostats is for testing
only and must not be used for the Aqua-Hot normal
operation.
2. Disconnect the Left DC high-limit thermostats' wires,
then, using an ohmmeter, check the thermostat for conti-
nuity.
If there is no continuity, complete the following:
A. Press the white reset button on the high-limit ther-
mostat, then re-check for continuity.
