Hello guys,
I have an Agilent 7820A GC-FID in my lab. My issue is that the actual temperature of the detector rises rapidly to get to the set point temp, goes higher than the set point temp and then the set point reads "Off".

Any help will be very much appreciated. The GC has been down for weeks now.

I suspect the heat sensor though I read online that it could also be a software issue. Maybe a re-installation will fix it?
