Temperature sensors question

Glad that worked Robert. Easy fixes are the best. I try to look for the easiest solution first and 8 times out of 10, it is the problem.

Good for you for getting that thing fixed!

For future reference you can check a thermister with a multi-meter - here is a chart for the resistance at a given temperature (you will need to remove or cut one of the wires so you don't get a false reading through the controller - then reconnect it):
Thermistor

Below is the resistance chart of the thermistor at different temperatures:

At 50 degrees Fahrenheit the thermistor should ohm at 19.9 K ohms

At 60 degrees 15.3 k ohms

70 degrees 11.9 K ohms

80 degrees 9.2 K ohms

90 degrees 7.4 K ohms

100 degrees 5.7 K ohms

110 degrees 4.7 K ohms

120 degrees 3.7 K ohms

130 degrees 3.1 K ohms

140 degrees 2.5 K ohms

Hope that helps...

Oh! Measure the wires going to the thermister, not the ones that disappear into the wall - just sayin' - LOL
