Hey Folks,
Hoping you all can point me in the right direction. Went to turn on the heater for the first time this past week and the touch panel wasn't coming on. On first inspection, it looks like a spider crawled in between the touch panel in the plastic on the cover to make himself (or herself) and nice home. Not sure if that's the issue but thought I would mention it.
Got out my volt meter and tested the power coming in and all was good there. Next I got into the sliver metal box (don't know what it's call) on the inside once removing the front panel. I notice that the small glass tube fuse was blown. Ordered and now installed. Still nothing. One video mentioned removing the ribbon from the panel and using a screwdriver to jump the first two pins that the ribbon inserts over (ones closest to the yellow button). I tried that and still nothing (unless I'm doing it wrong).
This is where I am stuck now. I can find any more info on where to hunt next unless I should just order a new board and hope for the best. I was really hoping the pin jump would work because at least the answer is a simple one.
