Aqua Hot AHE-100-04S "Low tank - Level Cutoff"
Greetings !
My Electronic Controller panel is lit "red" for the "Low tank - Level Cutoff". Liquid levels in the heat tank and overflow are good. Manually resetting the electronic controller has not fixed the issue. No hot water for a couple days now. Looking at the service manual trying to troubleshoot. Any helpful advice? Thanks. |

I have the Owners', Shop/Service, and Parts manuals. Here are the manuals.
EDIT - the Shop manual is too large to upload here. If you want a copy give me your e-mail address (You can PM me) and I will send it to you. However I got it on-line (somewhere) so you may be able to find it yourself if you prefer. Good luck |
There is a float valve up near the top of tank. Order a new one if you've already added boiler fluid.

Being 2 wire i think you can just connect the wires to check it. Should be 12v to and from. I jump them at the board, it's easier. Double check me on it in the manual. |
If you do not have shore power can you use your electric heater with generator for temporary heat.

Scroll down, jump 15 and 16. There's a picture of it |

You can short the 2 wires together from the float switch to get it to work.

Thanks, all.
I jumped 15 and 16 as suggested, and it looks like I need a new switch float assembly. |

You are fairly safe to run it with the jumper. As long as you know you have it full. I would check it everyday, would be one expensive deal if it went low on you. Just until the part arrives of course. |
Aqua Hot Float Switch
Hard nylon...much less $$ than others you will find. Around $15 when I got mine about 7 years ago. Use Teflon pipe dope hi-temp, not tape for a good seal. Be sure to orient it so it closes the circuit on low level of course.
Getting the old one out was a bear, and there is still a piece floating around somewhere, probably sunk to bottom of tank or it would have been an issue by now. :rolleyes: https://www.galco.com/shop/RSF80-Cyn...itches?obs=yes |
Dang Chuck ^^^ I tried to find a different switch but ended up buying the $150 one. If you hook a small vacuum cleaner at the radiator cap you will not loss any fluid when changing.

If jumpering the terminals is a way to bypass for temporary/testing purposes, wouldn't you orient the new switch to close the circuit when fluid is at proper level? |
