AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS
The face plate computer has a selfĆdiagnostic
function for the electrical system (except input
power and water meter). The
computer monitors the electronic
components and circuits for corĆ
rect operation. If a malfunction occurs, an error
code appears in the face plate display.
The chart below shows the error codes that could
appear, and the possible defects for each code.
While an error code appears in the display, all face
plate buttons are inoperable except the SELECT
button. The SELECT button remains operational
so the service person can make the MANUAL
INITIATE ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS to further
isolate the defect, and check the water meter.

If you don't get a reading in the display, with the
faucet open, pull the sensor from the valve outlet
port. Pass a small magnet back and forth in front of
the sensor. You should get a reading in the display.
