The flashing heating indicator light is a hardware fault prompt, with the core cause being "abnormal hot tank temperature sensor (NTC)":
1. Fault Causes:
- Sensor Open Circuit: The sensor line is disconnected, unable to transmit temperature signals;
- Sensor Short Circuit: Internal sensor fault, abnormal signal;
- Poor Contact: The connecting line between the sensor and mainboard is loose or oxidized.
2. User-operable Checks:
- Disconnect the power, wait 10 seconds, then restore power, observe if the indicator light returns to normal (eliminate temporary signal interference);
- If it still flashes after restart, confirm there is no obvious collision or water ingress on the unit (external force may cause sensor damage).
3. Professional Handling:
- The temperature sensor is a precision electronic component. Do not disassemble or test by yourself (easy to cause secondary faults);
- Call the official after-sales hotline, provide the model number and fault phenomenon, after-sales personnel will come to repair with special tools (usually replacing the sensor solves the problem).
Safety Tips:
- Prohibit the use of heating function during the fault period to avoid temperature out of control;
- Do not tap or vibrate the unit to prevent further damage to the sensor line.
