Likely causes
- Plug loose or on wrong header
- Thermistor failure
- Main PCB failure
Test and repair steps
- Check the sensor plug on the board is seated and on the right connector, and the lead is not cut or pinched.
- Unplug the thermistor and measure its resistance; compare with the resistance/temperature chart in the service manual. Open or shorted = replace.
- With the plug connected, check for about DC 5.0 V across the thermistor terminals on the board; no voltage = board fault.
- Cycle power after any repair and confirm the code does not return.
