    Thermostat help.

    Last night my power went out. Now my VE-200 won't keep a constant temp. Anyone ever had this problem? Is there a fix?

    Was out for 2 mins max and now the temp fluctuates +\- 2 degrees from what I set it at. Where as before it was a constant temp

    Did you check the Heater Mode?
    Make sure it is NOT On/Off

    I've never had one of these, but I'm wondering if maybe unplugging it for 5 or 10 minutes will help? Electrical surges can reek havoc, that's for sure.

    I'll give that a go as soon as I get home from work. That or I'm going to see if there is a way to reset it.

    In case anybody has this problem it means the probe is bad!! But Chris from C serpents called his VE supplier and they shipped one out for me same day!
