Hi Pascal.

I have useful information, but not sure yet if it will solve the issue.

I've gotten in touch with the guys at PeCon, and they've informed me
that the Tempcontrol 37-2 digital, Tempcontrol 37 and CO2-Controllers
made from 2010 through the middle of 2011 could be affected by bad
capacitors.  A PDF containing the details can be downloaded here:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzfJAGNfrgieNFJpRWxieWlxNkE/edit?usp=sharing.
They've recommended replacing both due to 'capacitor plague'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague.

I opened the unit and those two capacitors do look a little buldged
compared to the slightly taller ones in between.  Out unit is a good few
years older than the range they state, but I'm going to replace them all
the same and see if it helps.  I'll keep you posted.

Thanks

Neil
