This section contains a troubleshooting key and referenced flowcharts to assist a qualified service technician
in the servicing of a Southbend Combi oven. The Southbend Combi is equipped with a printed circuit board
controller that undergoes a diagnostic check every time the Combi is turned on. This diagnostic check
requires between 35 and 105 seconds. During this time, every segment in the display LEDs will be
illuminated. In the event of a diagnostic error, “Err” will appear in the TEMPERATURE display and a
descriptive error code will appear in the TIME display. To recover from error mode, the problem must be
fixed and the unit turned off and back on again. A table of error codes and their causes is listed below:
Error Code Cause
CP:U The controller has failed a check of its on-board RAM (controller will need replaced)
bu:tn A button on the control panel is sticking in the down position or a button was held by the operator during startup
FA:n The cavity temperature limit switch or the centrifugal switch incorporated into the motor has tripped, indicating a
possible failure of the blower motor
GA:S A gas error can be caused by a variety of problems and is listed separately as a symptom in the following
troubleshooting guide (see page 28)
Pr:0b At least one of the RTD probes has failed in either an open or shorted condition.
