    What to do if my Steca Thermostat shows 'Col1' flow rate fault?
    • S
      smithbrianAug 17, 2025
      If your Steca Thermostat displays 'Col1', indicating a flow rate fault, it could be due to a few reasons: there might be air in the system (in this case, bleed air from the system), the isolating valve might be closed (check the isolating valve), or the pump could be faulty (check the pump).

    Why is my Steca Thermostat display empty or dark?
    • B
      Brian MathewsAug 19, 2025
      If the display of your Steca Thermostat is empty or dark, the controller power supply might be interrupted. To resolve this, check the controller power cable and the fuse for the power supply.

    What to do if output R1 of my Steca Thermostat is overloaded?
    • D
      Deborah OliverAug 22, 2025
      If the pump connected to output R1 flashes, it means that the permissible values for R1 specified on the type plate have been permanently exceeded, and the output has been switched off. To fix this, check the electrical data of the pump and replace it if necessary. R1 is automatically switched on again.

    Why is the solar circuit pump not operating on my Steca Thermostat?
    • T
      Thomas MartinSep 5, 2025
      If the solar circuit pump is not operating on your Steca Thermostat, even when the switch-on condition is fulfilled, it could be due to a few reasons: the pump power supply might be interrupted (check the pump power cable), or the pump might have seized up (get the pump working again, replace if necessary). If there is no fault.

    Why does the solar circuit pump on my Steca Thermostat show cycle behavior?
    • D
      Darren MillerSep 7, 2025
      If the solar circuit pump on your Steca Thermostat shows cycle behavior, it could be due to a temperature difference that is too small (adjust temperature difference in the Parameters settings menu), or the collector sensor might be incorrectly positioned (check the position of the collector sensor and correct if necessary).
