Quick answer

Navien E407 means: Water sensor abnormality — the unit reads an out-of-range water temperature signal. It's usually caused by faulty inlet/outlet thermistor, connector corrosion, or scale-coated probe.

How we fix E407

We test the inlet and outlet thermistors, clean corroded connectors, and check for scale coating the probe. Scaled sensors read low and drive the burner too hard, so we usually pair the repair with a descaling.

Test and replace the affected thermistor, clean connections, and descale if scale is present.
