The Tip Connection Is Dirty or Faulty


The Internal Connection Socket Is Dirty or Faulty

  • Disassemble the smart soldering Iron and examine the internal socket for damage or debris. 
    • Make sure the socket has not come loose from the mainboard.
    • You can insert a soldering tip into the socket, and then with gentle pressure check to see if the socket is loose. 
  • Use contact cleaner to clean the socket contacts.

The Soldering Iron Tip Is Faulty

  • If you have another tip, try it in the iron to see if the error goes away. If it does, then the tip causing the error is defective and needs replacement. Contact support for help with replacement if the tip is still fairly new.
