Antunes Egg Station Error Code 17 Diagnostics

• Step 1. Disconnect from power – Unplug the unit and wait for it to cool down. 
• Step 2. Remove the bottom panel – Unscrew the bottom screws and open the bottom panel. Use a thumbscrew to hold the panel open so the wiring can stay connected. 
• Step 3. Check for resistance – Use a multimeter to check for resistance and see if you have an open circuit. Start from the blue wire coming out of the control board then to the yellow wire that’s going back to the control board. 
• Step 4. Test each terminal – If it shows that you have continuity, test each terminal individually to make sure they’re working.
• Step 5. Check insulation – Check if the insulation is full of grease, as this can also cause an error 17 on the unit. The high-limit can become damaged due to the grease.
• Step 6. Access control board – Remove the control board cover to get access to the board. 
• Step 7. Check for loose wires – Check for loose connections to the control board. Unplug the connector from the control board and using a small flat head screwdriver, make sure each wire is seated into the connector. 
• Step 8. Reconnect connector – Reinstall the connector back onto the unit, making sure the pins are aligned. Reattach the unit to power.
• Step 9. Use multimeter to check voltage – Using the multimeter, take the meter leads and use the tabs on the connector to check that you’re getting power into the board. If any wires don’t have the same voltage, it can trigger error 17. Press the power button and once it clicks on you should see the voltage on the multimeter. 
• Step 10. Check amperage probe – If the amperage probe sensor has an error, that can also trigger error 17. Use the multimeter to check the amperage. 
• Step 11. Remove the contactor cover – Unscrew the nuts and remove the contact cover. 
• Step 12. Check the contactor coils – Check for 1000 Ohms on the coils for the contactors. 
• Step 13. Check contactor poles – If the coils are fine, check the contactor poles. Open up the cover and plug the unit in. Press one side three times quickly, then repeat on the other side. If you feel it binding in any direction, then the contactor is faulty.
