cpp2 temperature problems

[Chris Wilding]

Hi

I have a Jobo cpp2 processor and the temperature control doesn't seem to be working. When switched on the temperature simply continues to rise. I have just performed a partial calibration and the temperature read out is accurate, it just keeps rising!

Any body experienced this and have a remedy or where might I have a repair done here in the uk?

As always any advice greatly appreciated

Cheers

Chris

This is your best bet, never used him but only hear good things, and his English is OK as well.

Thanks very much for the link Ed. This is vexing me! I'm going to have one more try at calibration then I may have to contact your guy.

Thanks again.

Be interested to hear how you get on, I've got a spare CPA2 with the same problem.

Hi Ed

Just an update on the CPP2.

The guy who sold me the machine sent a replacement sensor which connects to the thermal cut-out switch and runs along the heating element, this seemed to help the problem as I can now maintain the the temp at around 38 degrees. However i still cant control the temp with the control dials! What I really think I need is the thermostat sensor that runs from the temp control board down into the pump housing, it looks quite easy to replace if you can get your hands on the part my guy has said he would try and source one but who knows? It was an Ebay purchase! If not I may have to bite the bullet and contact your guy in Germany.

You may have already seen this but if you want a go at your CPA2 I have been referring to this:

Thank goodness for the internet!

Hope all is well and let me know if you get anywhere with it.

Oh if anyone has such a part they are interested in selling let me know!! Thanks

Cheers
