Primary Pressure out of range/ CAR1 AFC is leaking

Discussions about GC and other "gas phase" separation techniques.

My Shimadzu GC 2014 (ECD for Nitrous Oxide) has begun flashing the messages up in the heading. Im not sure how to fix these issues. It seems like it might be an issue with my carrier gases (N2, and argon, methane, etc mix)...Does anybody know how much pressure the regulators on my gas tanks should be releasing? Somebody might have messed with them and Im not sure what the original positions were. Any other advice would be great too!
The input pressures that your GC needs will be in the users manuals (or maybe even on tags on the back of the instrument). As a guess I'd say 4 bar (400 KPa).
