This unit is situated on the left
side of the tank. It is a little aluminium unit with fins on. Check the o-ring
of this unit. Unscrew the unit and check for moisture in the cavity below it. Use
moisture repellent spray and contact cleaner to clean this device. |
If problem solving does not work
then replace the unit. |
