D33 Probe Position Error
Problem
The probe detector cannot determine the position of the sample probe.
Solutions
Check to see if the probe is bent. If the probe is bent replace it as described in
Replacing the Sample Probe in Section 3.
Check the sample port, the probe mount, and the capillary seal for obstructions,
and ensure that the capillary seal is installed correctly. If obstructions are
present:
1. Remove obstructions and reposition the capillary seal as described in
Removing Obstructions from the Sample Entry Components, page 4-79.
2. Clean the sample probe with a lint-free tissue moistened with a 10%
solution of household bleach, and rinse with reagent water.
NOTE:ĄĂ Undiluted household bleach is 5.25% sodium hypochlorite.
Perform the Sample Entry Test as described on page 4-67.
Remove the sample probe and repeat the Sample Entry Test.
If the screen indicates that the probe is working properly, install a new sample
probe as described in Replacing the Sample Probe in Section 3.
If the D code reappears, contact your Service Representative.
