Step 1: Check the fuse and circuit breaker. Step 2: Check and retighten any high current mechanical connections. (Check all other connectors for condition and security.) Step 3: Check consumable or high wear, high power density components such as the heater elements, mechanical switches. I cannot recall any control board systems just breaking or failing with the modern electronics. Excellent and informative video. Thank You!

I don't know if you still check in on this video. This is the BEST breakdown of the electric heaters I've found. The EcoSmart troubleshooter manual doesn't even get into the triacs and thermostats... I have an Eco-27 that was running great for about 2 years (cleaned every 6 months too). Recently, the hot will intermittently cut out mid-shower, then come back on before I can run out to check for a code. I have yet to be able to catch a code, so I ran through testing the ohms for the elements and I replaced my flow impeller and sensor top (reused the body) because the impeller was starting to make a little odd noise (not the usual noise). Still has intermittent issues. Thermistors next? I was under the impression triacs are either good or bad, so am I correct in thinking these are not the problem? or maybe one or more of the thermostats? Your vid mentioned how to see if they are closed, but at what reading should they open? Wouldn't an open condition (hot) turn them off? Thank you for putting this together and for any input you can provide! Edit, just caught the codes. When it shut off, the display reads "5103" and "P009". I can't locate those codes anywhere and they aren't the expected "E" codes in the troubleshooting guide. Turned back on a few moments later... Pulled the elements and they are clean but I noticed that #1 and #2 seem to have contact points near the top where the loop touches(d) the sides of the chamber. Is this normal and could this cause "grounding" or a short of some sort that kicks it off? Ordered new elements just in case (and having spares never hurts).

Can you please provide the video where you talk about the optocoupler (13:20) . I just replaced all of my heating elements for my Eco Smart Tankless 36, I also cleaned out the inlet and outlet sensors. Turned on the hot water, checked for hot water . Left it running for at least 5 minutes. Then when I wanted to use the shower 2 hours later, I got no hot water. Which means I'll have to troubleshoot the system and figure this thing out cause a plumber would cost about the same as the replacement. And also, I have a soft spot for these types of repairs.

Thank you, sir, for this great video. I have an Ecco Smart 11. I am in the Sacramento, CA area with inlet temperature around 60 degrees F. My shower head limits to a flow of 1.6 gpm. My problem is that unit appears to only "sort of" working raising water temperature to 80 degrees. Voltage going into unit measured at 245 and amperage on wires going in to both heating elements is about 23.5 A for each. Also I have tried on 2 separate Eco Smart units with same results. Could there be a problem with my double ple 60 amp breaker, or.. Is the shower fixture itself at fault?
@paulhoefnagels4923 жыл бұрын
I have a sharp WH-55 or hothot I have used your video to troubleshoot and found the potentiometer, the triac and the main double pole switch to be correct. The temperature sensor was open. No indication on the controller board of damaged components or burns. The triac is a combined item with two wires carrying ground and live and the third connection the gate I suppose from the controller board the neutral wire is connected at the terminal to a wire that returns to the control board. There is no transformer. In the end I found that the temperature sensor has a little pin on top and if you press that one the temp sensor closes again and allows current to go through. Thanks for your video

I have an Ecosmart 18 which is 3 years old. A couple days ago, it started making a water hammer noise. I contacted Ecosmart and after about a half hour of discussing the problem and being put on hold, they decided I needed two new elements and triacs. I ordered the parts which should be in tomorrow but meanwhile I tried the water heater again and the thermostat is at 109 degrees but the water is getting boiling hot with vapor coming out of the faucet. Before recommending the parts, Ecosmart sent test procedures for the element and triac which tested ok. I will change the parts which cost almost 50% of replacement but I really think it is a circuit board problem and they should replace.

Hello. Great video! It helped me understand whats going on how to test each component. I dont normally like to bother creators with personal questions, but for this ive searched everywhere and im at a loss. So thought I would ask. I have had intermittent hot water for some time. sometimes luke warm, sometimes hot. It finally went to all cold recently and when I inspected the unit (ecosmart 27) the first Triac was completely melted!!! So thats def the issue. But what I cant find out, and what really concerns me, is WHY did it melt. Ive ordered a new Triac, but is it just gonna melt (they arent cheap)? More importantly, is it going to start a fire in my house??? I thought the Fuse would trip to stop something like this, but even with it already melted, the circuit board light up and showed a temperature reading. Any ideas as to why it would melt like this? I read about triacs a bit, but it does get confusing. Did it fail open? Does this just happen sometimes and its ok? Any help from you, or anyone else that might read this, would be appreciated! ThankS!

Very good video. But I am not familiar with the model you present but I think the device in series with the heater attached to the tank is a thermal cut out or safety switch. The temperature of the water is controlled by the pwm of signal to the gate terminal of the triac.

I have a Noritz tankless water heater, and it works pretty well now for over 8 years. I have a problem though, if I try to make my my shower water cooler, I get to a state where the water either turns totally cold, or gets totally hot. When it works it is often very hot, which I mostly like, but sometimes I want it cooler. I bought and attaches the remote control unit and set the temp to 100 degrees, but it seems hotter than that sometimes. If I am taking a shower and I turn the cold water up too much the whole thing shuts down and I get totally cold water. If I turn the cold water down eventually it will get warm, but then it will also often get too hot ... even with the max temp only set to 100. I have a very cold hot and cold water combiner ... maybe from the 60's or earlier to control the shower, and I thought that might be part of the problem. If I open a small stream on the vanity faucet it seems to work OK. I think somehow opening up the cold water pushes against the hot water and causes the stream to slow down and the burner to shut off. Is there a way to fix this?

You need to inspect the cold water inlet of the heater. It could have a lot of debris/corrosion inside.

@@electronicsNmore I just cleaned the filter again and it was almost clean as a whistle. I think there is a drop in pressure on the outlet of the water heater, and when the cold water mixes in the shower fixture the cold water pushes back on the hot water because it has higher pressure and impedes the flow, and the until seeing less or no flow shuts off the burner. I don't think the imput is obstructed, and I don't see corrosion or rust in the screens on the faucets?

TRIACs are AC switches. When triggered, they conduct until the voltage crosses zero volts, then shut off. If triggered again, before the voltage comes back on the negative pulse, they'll conduct again. They get their trigger pulse from the optoisolators. The Isolators get their power from the DC supply on the board.

My tankless water heater looks identical to yours. My problem I will have intermittent hot water, it cycles hot to cold back to hot and again to cold. The green temp leds stay illuminated and I can hear the flow sensor working. Any thoughts on the intermittent cycling hot water?

I have an Eco 27 and my unit is making a lot of noise I can’t leave the break room because it’s sending power to the metal element while it’s supposed to be off

If the flow sensor fails, a temp sensor should turn off the heating element if the water gets too hot.

We have a brand new Rheem tankless electric and out of the box it had an e4 error code, after using the hot water it cracks and pops(like boiling water)we can't control the temperature of the water at all, it works even when you turn the power off with the knob. Now it's starting to hiss all the time. Have you ever seen anything like this? We are at a loss... any guidance would appreciated.

An error code ‘E4’ on your Rheem Tankless Water Heater indicates that the flow meter sensor gets faulty. The flow meter sensor is also referred to as a water temperature sensor. If this sensor is at fault, it will not send a signal to the computer, which starts the tankless unit. A defective flow meter sensor, broken wire, and poor connection are the culprits that trigger the error code E4.

In the event the flow sensor switch is a problem, how do you remove it especially for Joven water heater?

+Casey Qiu Every tankless heater is different, but they all work in a very similar way. Look up your heater online, as well as the exact part to get an idea how to remove it. Thanks

Hello. Thanks for the video. I have a question: I have a Richmond brand system. All rooms get hot water except the kitchen. The water supply valve is wide open. If I do get hot water there, I have to let the water run maybe 5 to 7 minutes. Any information is very much appreciated. Thanks

If the unit is showing that power is applied, then there must be an issue with the flow sensor not turning the heat on

Had a bad heating element with an e5 error. Replaced it and still getting the error. Water is heated until too many faucets/appliances are running. Any of the other parts worth checking first?
@rayv7921 Жыл бұрын
Got into diagnostics and the inlet temp is 70 outlet 125. Flow at 2.1gpm with the tub running and it will throw the error if it's turned over 125. Guessing I had a bad triac and element? Recent lightning strike took out tv/thermostat/stereo/etc.

Great video. I have an intermittent issue where no water flows through the tankless at all. It has been coming and going the past few days. Any ideas what the issue could be?
@electronicsNmore5 жыл бұрын
Sounds like the water is partially frozen at the inlet, or the inlet filter screen is mostly clogged. Thanks for watching! Be sure to share my channel with others.

I’ve been going back and forth with Rheem customer service. I have a RTEX36. I’ve had it for about 1 year. All of a sudden last September the water stopped getting hot. Most faucets will get warm but nothing over 90 degrees. The #1 element is the only one that never turns on which according to the manual should be the 1st one on. It’s also the only one with -0- volts. All of the elements are reading at 6 ohms. Customer service suggested I replace the #1 triac and the #1 thermostat. Nothing has worked and another caveat is when I turn on more than one faucet I’m getting an E5 error. Sorry for the long message, but I figured why not ask to see if you have any ideas. Thanks in advance.

hey I'm making a small correction when I have the thermostat on the lowest level the lights go off and on like they used to but nothing happens when I turn it up to high they all stay on and give me warm water that's if I have one of the cables of either one of the elements disconnected if they're both connected like they supposed to I don't get nothing just every other second lights flickering acting like if it was on the lowest level Heat. thanks.
