Your Danfoss 102E5 boiler may not be starting and stopping according to the timer set to auto due to several possible reasons:
1. Incorrect Programming – Verify that the programmed ON and OFF times are correctly set. 2. Manual Overrides Active – Check if the +1HOUR or ADVANCE override buttons are activated, as they can temporarily alter the schedule. 3. Unit Set to OFF – The ADVANCE function does not work if the unit is set to OFF, so ensure it is in AUTO mode. 4. Power Supply Issues – Confirm that the unit is receiving power (230V supply). 5. Wiring Issues – Ensure all wiring connections, including zone valves and thermostats, are properly connected. 6. Battery Backup Failure – If there is a battery backup issue, the unit may lose programmed settings and not function as expected. 7. Faulty Unit – If the above checks do not resolve the issue, the unit itself may be faulty and require inspection or replacement.
Check these factors to diagnose the issue and restore proper operation.
