## Description

Pentair 471566 Thermistor Probe Replacement Pool/Spa Pump and Heater

Review: Worked perfectly - Excellent. I saved a bunch of money not having to get a service call and the additional markup. Easy to install if you are handy.
Review: Fixed my Pool Heater Myself - My Pentair Mini-Max NT was acting up not too long ago. It wouldn't come on to heat the spa or pool as the temperature it was reading was way too high. I didn't know for sure what was wrong with my heater, but had a hunch that maybe the thermistor probe had gone bad. Since I figured it wouldn't hurt anything if I replaced the probe and was wrong, and since it's a pretty cheap part, I decided to replace it. Turned out It was pretty easy to replace the probe once I was able to get the main heater cover off. (Getting the cover off, however, was a PITA). Just took out the old one with a wrench, cleaned off the hole and threads, and replaced new one with some Teflon tape. My heater now works like new.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fixed Err message on Pentair MiniMax NT.
*by E***C on June 23, 2023*

Heater hadn't been used for months and when we tried it didn't come on and had an Err message on the display and the Service light was on. Manual says contact service tech but further research said it's normally the thermistor. If it wasn't that it would most likely the control panel circuit board which goes for around $400. Cheap part for troubleshooting and super easy to install. Fixed the problem. Just note it didn't come with plumbers tape but I always have some at the house.
