I have an Resmed S9 Auto and starting last week I wake up sometimes with no air at all blowing. Been using it fine since 2014. It has a min. pressure set so as long as its on it should always be blowing and yet I wake up to nothing. No worse my sleep quality has been in the toilet.
No errors at all on the machine and if I adjust the mask and wait a few seconds it kickes in again and starts blowing air.
Is it the end of my S9 auto? It been such a work horse.

It worked for two years more than its expected life. Time to move on.

Are you using Smart Start? It will and has been known to malfunction.

Re: Waking up with no air blowing?
I am using Smart start. I guess it won't hurt to try turning it off. Been using it for years though. I'll try tonight.
Re: Waking up with no air blowing?
Large leaks will tend to make the machine shut off with smart start.

Re: Waking up with no air blowing?
Thank you everyone. Turning off Smart Start got me my first decent night sleep in almost 2 weeks!
I went ahead an got a new machine, but at least now I know I can clean this one up and store it as a backup when the new one arrives (someday).

I like good news.
It has been in short supply lately.
