Possible Causes

Open or shorted thermostat wiring, Incorrect external control connections, Faulty room thermostat, Misconfigured control parameters

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before working on low-voltage control wiring.

  • 1. Verify thermostat wiring: Confirm that thermostat wires are connected to the correct terminals on the Triangle Tube board.
  • 2. Inspect cable: Look for staples through the wire, cuts, or shorts in the thermostat cable.
  • 3. Test thermostat: Temporarily jumper the thermostat terminals (e.g., TT) at the boiler. If it fires, the thermostat or its wiring is the problem.
  • 4. Check control settings: Verify the control is configured for the correct type of external input (on/off, outdoor reset, etc.).
  • 5. Replace faulty components: Replace a defective thermostat or damaged cable.
  • 6. Professional help: If the board doesn't respond to a jumper, it may need replacement by a professional.
