Question:

Our watch dog has been on a little over 12 hrs. Plugged it in about 5pm and popped up a e6 code at around 10 am next day. Wouldnt that code showed up when we first plugged it in?

One would think that with the E6 error code on the Power Watchdog # HU87FR, the code would pop virtually right away, and not after being hooked up for several hours. Generally the E6 code is a sign that something is wrong with the plug you are using, and not the watchdog unit. It is possible that something is wrong with the watchdog unit itself. The best way to be sure is to plug the unit in to a different power source and see if you get the same E6 error code. If you continue to get the same error code, you will need to reach out to the manufacturer directly for a warranty replacement.
