Possible Causes:
Plug/socket connection problems
Wiring connection problems
Contactor(s) stuck closed
Contactor coils being energized in standby mode

Water piping problems
• Check the J5 plug/socket connection at the
CCB ensure they are mating properly and pro-
viding good contact. Check the pins inside the
J5 plug/socket for wear or damage. See CCB
illustration and socket identification on pages 50

replace damaged wiring as necessary. See
CCB illustration and socket identification on
pages 50 - 52.
• Check ECO continuity and for 120 VAC to and
