help with the "too slow" problem

[inspector-71]

my rig was working fine yesterday.

i switched it on today and when I came back it hadn't started, the display read too slow and was reporting 55 degrees.

I unplugged it and restarted and watched as it slowly went down to -1 but then stopped and reported "too slow" again

I din't hear any of the creaks I normally do when it's cooling down

there are no signs of any leaks in the socket seal but there is some condensation on the top of the block .

course of action?

Reflash the firmware,if that doesn't work,it's either the control board gone or it has a leak.

i have just checked it again before I reflashed the firmware after leavig it for a good while and it has worked straight away

any ideas?

the only other thing i did was push the seal string into the screw heads a bit harder but it looked ok anyway

still worth reflashing?

It wouldn't hurt to flash it,but you'd better keep a good eye on it.Then give it a long overnight turned off and see how it does then.Could be that it only ran properly this last time because it has already been running today.

on the plus side. it made me notice that my water was nearly below the t line in the gfx loop. eek!

flashed and left off for 18 hours and booted first time today.

hopefully that solved it but i'll keep a close eye on it
