Hi guys, I've been using a BFT Deimos Ultra BT600 sliding gate opener for about 5 years now and I have never had any issues with it until a week ago when, after a rainy day, the device started malfunctioning. It opens the gate normally, but then it refuses to close it neither by remote nor through the respective button on the board. When I press any of the "close' buttons 'ERF1' appears on the display. The manual suggested checking the connections to the 'limit switch' which I did but to no avail. Next I did a hard reset, as described in the manual and the problem was solved. A week later though, after another rain, same problem appeared again. I'll reset it once again but I'm wondering what may be causing the malfunction to persist. Does any one have any idea what may be the reason for this particular error? Looks like it is rain/humidity related but why now? In the past five years or so it had rained and snowed hundreds of times but it had never caused any problems. Any input will be highly appreciated.
