Hi

As its new I would recommend you to get use warranty and get it repaired/replaced. However, if you still want to do this yourself then pull out the main wire box located inside the pad and then take it apart and use hair dryer to dry the electronic control board, this should work, however remember that opening it will void the warranty. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

This means that the controller for the heating pad has a short. Water will cause the controller to short out. If water is spilled on the controller you can unplug the cord and take the controller apart and use a hair dryer to dry the controller out. If no water has been spilled on the controller you can take it apart to make sure all of the wires are still soldered in place.

My electric blanket had the same message and I could not find anywhere to answer question. Sunbeam said to look on th cord tag and this was no help. I finally pulled out the main wire box inside blanket and took apart to see if there was anything obvious. All solders looked fine but then I noticed a drop of water. Used a hair dryer to dry the electronic board, reassembled and it worked. Must have been a water short.

What control, brand, model # etc.? An educated guess would be that you have a gas forced air system. FF would typically mean Flame Failure. Pull flame sensor, clean rod with steel wool until shiny again and reinstall. Your flame sensor will have one wire going to it. Located at the opposite side from the igniter. It will have a ceramic base with stainless steel probe protruding into the flame. Hope my guess helps.
