Newbie - Help with RemStar Pro E8 error code - Kristina1 - 05-26-2017

Hi everyone....I have a RemStar Pro system, and im getting an E8 error code. The resolution is to replace main PCA... what is that? And I have rebuilt car engines... is this something I can fix myself? Where do i buy a PCA? Thanks

There is a conflict between your ResMed Pro in your profile; and the RemStar Pro in your post.
Probably just a typo?

The PCA is like the engine control module in a late model automobile. It's the mainboard.
The problem is: No one will sell a PCA assembly.

How long have you had the machine; it may still be under warranty.

Talk with Supplier #27 and Supplier #28 about repairs.

Repair costs may exceed the cost of getting a new DreamStation DSX500T11 Auto CPAP.
There are bargains as low as $350.00 out there.
