Auto Reset
High Limit
The outlet water temperature has exceeded
the setting of the automatic reset high limit.
• Verify that the system is full of water and that all air

• Verify that the boiler is piped properly into the heating
system. Refer to Section 6 - Hydronic Piping of the
Knight XL Installation and Operation Manual
for the proper piping methods for the Knight XL boiler.
• Check 120 vac to boiler pump motor on a call for
heat. If voltage is not present, check wiring back to
the main control board.
• Replace the main control board if necessary.
• If 120 vac is present on a call for heat and the boiler
pump is not operating, replace the pump.
• If the system pump is a variable speed pump, ensure
that the system flow is not less than the boiler flow.
• If operating on something other than an outlet sensor,
check temperature setting of the main control board.
• If the optional manual reset high limit has tripped,
check setting of the device.
• Check resistance of water sensors and compare to
Table 3-2A on page 35 of this manual. Replace
sensor if necessary.
• Replace high limit.
