Hi James, Well not exactly the same (never had the pid issue). Try resetting it? If you have not that is. Here is my experience when mine went nuts.
http://groups.google.com/group/brewtus/browse_thread/thread/706743653e1fd926 FYI written in our manual it states (sorry not my writing.) Page 24 20.5 FACTORY DEFAULTS / RESET OF PERAMETERS ( I will not type all of this) But it says any faults try resetting it. Turn off the machine (Not the way it is written but I know this is how it works) Hold the Up arrow key on the PID (right hand button). Turn on the unit. When the unit lights up it will show Pr5, let go of button. Once you see this turn machine off and back on. You will now be at factory default. 20.6 ALARMS OF THE THERMOSTAT. "Case the temperature probe got disconnected, the display will show the error "A1" " "Case the temperature probe got short circuited the display will show the error "A2" " So do the reset first! Then after that if you still have the same problem and since it is new I would speak to your retailer before opening it up and poking around, I imagine they might just ask you to open the back if the reset does not work. Maybe just a loose wire. Good luck John On Apr 9, 6:55 am, JamesG <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everyone > > My 4 month old Brewtus iv (called a Leva over here in UK) has > developed a fault.
