      Why does my test chamber not have a temperature pull up?

      The lack of a temperature pull up could be caused by a defective temperature controller, heat switch, or relay; a burnt-out heater, or a broken heater connection.

      Check these possible causes and solutions if there is NO power to the heater:

      The test chamber has no power.
          SOLUTION: Check the fuse or circuit breaker for the line.
      The temperature controller is defective.
          SOLUTION: Replace the defective controller.
      The heat switch is defective.
          SOLUTION: Replace the defective heat switch.
      The relay is defective. This occurs only with models that have relays.
          SOLUTION: Replace the defective relay.
      The heater connection is loose or the heater is defective.
          SOLUTION: Check the connection to the heater, or replace the defective heater.
      The heat link is open.
          SOLUTION: Replace the heat link. Do not attempt to repair it, and do not short out the heat link.
