What to do if my Protemp PT 45-KFA fires then shuts down with an E1 error?
- P
  Patricia WilliamsonSep 12, 2025
  If your Protemp Heater starts but then shuts down, and the LED display shows “E1” with a flickering lamp, the possible causes include incorrect pump pressure, a dirty input, output, or lint filter, a dirty fuel filter, a dirty nozzle, a dirty or defective photocell, or a fuel valve issue. Try these steps: adjust the pump pressure, clean or replace the air filter, fuel filter, and nozzle. Also, clean or replace the photocell, adjust its position, or replace it if defective. Finally, check the wiring connections between the circuit board and photocell, and inspect the fuel valve.

  If your Protemp Heater doesn't operate, the motor runs briefly, the lamp flickers, and the LED displays 'E1', here are some things to check: 1. Ensure the fuel tank has fresh kerosene. 2. Adjust the pump pressure if it's incorrect. 3. Clean or replace a corroded spark plug with an incorrect gap. 4. Clean or replace the fuel filter if it is dirty. 5. Clean or replace the nozzle if it is dirty. 6. Rinse the fuel tank with fresh, clean kerosene if there's moisture inside. 7. Inspect all electrical connections between the transformer and circuit board. 8. Re-attach the ignitor wire to the spark plug if it's disconnected. 9. Replace the ignitor if it is defective.

Why does my Protemp PT 45-KFA Heater shut off after igniting and shows E1?
- N
  Nicholas TorresAug 31, 2025
  If your Protemp Heater ignites but the main PCB shuts off shortly after, displaying 'E1' and the lamp flickers, it could be due to several reasons: * Incorrect pump pressure, which requires adjustment. * A dirty input, output, or lint filter, which should be cleaned or replaced. * A dirty fuel filter, which should be cleaned or replaced. * A dirty nozzle, which should be cleaned or replaced. * A dirty photocell lens, which should be cleaned or replaced. * Improper installation or a defect in the photocell, requiring adjustment, or replacement. * Improper electrical connection between the main PCB and photocell; check wiring connections.

  John BowmanSep 14, 2025
  If the fan on your Protemp Heater does not operate when plugged in and the power switch is in the “ON” position, and the lamp is flickering or on, it could be due to the thermostat being set too low or a broken electrical connection between the circuit board and the motor. Try rotating the thermostat to a higher setting and inspect all electrical connections.
