If your Wenglor Security Sensor indicates an error, it might be due to a short circuit. Inspect the wiring and correct any shorts. Alternatively, the sensor may be overheating. If this is the case, disconnect it from the power supply and let it cool down. A device error could also be the cause. Try disconnecting and then reconnecting the sensor to restart it. If the problem persists, consider replacing the sensor.
