What does the flashing LED on the ACOVA MADRAS radiator's wall-mounted electrical module mean and how can I resolve this issue?

Question

Accepted Answer

On your ACOVA MADRAS towel radiator, the heating indicator (LED) that is flashing indicates a temperature sensor fault detected. This indicator normally stays on when the heating element is powered, but its flashing signals a malfunction affecting the temperature control of your device.

Before contacting a professional, first check that the problem is not related to the blower filter. If you notice that the FILTER and alarm indicators are flashing simultaneously, this indicates that the filter is missing or incorrectly positioned on the blower. Correctly reposition the cleaned filter in its housing, then press the button for 5 seconds to reset the blower. This action may sometimes resolve the issue.

If only the heating indicator continues to flash after checking the filter, the problem comes from the temperature sensor that controls the operation of the heating element. This sensor ensures that the device reaches and maintains the set temperature you have adjusted on the remote control.

You can perform a simple test: check that the remote control is properly powered (batteries in good condition), that you have set a target temperature, and that the radiator is electrically powered. Also, make sure that no object is obstructing the airflow around the radiator.

If after these checks the heating indicator continues to flash, contact your installer or your ACOVA dealer to have the temperature sensor checked and repaired. When you call, have the information on the rating label of your radiator (model, remote control version number) ready to expedite the process. The sensor is an important safety component: do not attempt to repair it yourself.

The heating body of the MADRAS radiator is guaranteed for 5 years against any manufacturing defects, while other components including the sensor are guaranteed for 2 years from your date of purchase.
