The field service engineer (fse) replaced a vacuum valve and confirmed the module was operating within specification.Reagent issues were excluded as the customer had no further issues and the correct repeat result was received using the same reagent.The investigation determined the issue identified by the fse (blocked vacuum valve) was the cause of the event.
