Ok after bragging about how well my build went, today I powered up and my auber timer is flashing, about 2 times per second. I cant change any settings.
Anyone know whats up? it worked fine yesterday

Check your connections and wire to your rtd (or other) probe (connection on pot and connection on PID) - something is connected and the PID will not work if not hooked up to the probe. I would guess there is an issue with the one on your pot, but bumped something, etc.

*Edit*
He said his auber timer, not a PID. I personally have not had any issues, but would assume you have a loose wire somewhere. I just saw your build so you do have it wired to a buzzer and reset switch. I would make sure that all of these connections are good. Obviously the timer has power, etc because it is turning on and blinking. If all the connection look good, I would check the manual on the auber website as I believe it has some troubleshooting at the end or just give them a call. Good luck
 
It seems to have straightend itself out.. I checked wiring and all looks good, so we'll see..
Thanks
