CB E1400 LO but water gauge says full?
« on: March 22, 2014, 11:22:25 AM »

Anyone ever have this issue? The boiler will not fire up the display flashes LO which means low water but the gauge says it is full I added some water to see it that would fix it no luck, just filled it until it over flowed still says LO.  :bash:

Over at the Forestry Forum the issue that you are having was discussed a year or two ago.
I think to get by they simply ran a jumper between the two wires that attach to the low H2O sending unit(switch is closed when water is present).
I'll bet your dealer knows how to bypass it until he can get you a new one.
