Eppendorf Thermocycler

Hi Everyone,

 

I currently have the Eppendorf Thermocycler model 5331 that was given to us by friend, his lab was closing down. It was good for a few days but last week i ran into an error. It is the "T sensor error" and i dont' know how to fix the issue. I was wondering if anyone had experienced this issue before and can lend a hand in solving this problem.

Hi....We have the same error on a Mastercycler Personal and need to follow up on the problem. Do you know if there is a service manual available for this machine? Also check fuses on power board.  F300 vdd mainboard, F301vdd 12V fan, F302 vvd 12V control unit. 27volt is used for the heating and cooling circuits.
