Table 8 - Troubleshooting with LED Indicator Assistance

No Cycling or appliance power or thermostat call for heat since appliance failure has occured.

Line voltage power can cause product damage, severe injury or death. Only a trained experienced service technician should perform this trouble- shooting.

1.Check the system thermo- stat to make sure it is call- ing for heat. (Do not cycle the thermostat on and off at this time.)

2.Remove the appliance burner compartment door. Do not interrupt power to the control board by opening any electrically interlocked panels.

3.Observe the LED indicator on the control board (a green LED labeled “OK” indicates system faults); check and repair system as noted in the chart to the right.

*NOTICE: Air flow proving switch and power venter hose barbs must be free of any dust or debris at all times. Periodically check these openings and/or if any problems occur.

LED STATUS

INDICATES

 

CHECK/REPAIR

 

 

 

Slow Flash

Control OK, no call for heat.

Not Applicable

 

 

 

Fast Flash

Control OK, call for heat present.

Not Applicable

 

 

 

Steady Off

Internal control fault, or no power.

1. Line voltage on terminals 120

 

 

 

and C on transformer.

 

 

2.

Low voltage (24V) on terminals

 

 

 

24 and C on transformer.

 

 

3.

5 Amp fuse on circuit board.

 

 

 

Steady On

Control internal failure or bad ground.

1. Common side of transformer

 

 

 

grounded to chassis.

 

 

2.

Loose spark ignitor.

 

 

 

2 Flashes

In lockout from failed ignitions

1. Gas supply off or gas supply

 

or flame losses.

 

pressure too low.

 

 

2.

Flame sense rod contaminated

 

 

 

or loose wire.

 

 

3.

Gas valve switch is off or wires

 

 

 

are not connected.

 

 

4.

Broken or cracked porcelain on

 

 

 

flame probe or spark ignitor.

 

 

 

3 Flashes

Pressure Switch open with inducer on

1. Obstructions or restrictions

 

or closed with inducer off.

 

in appliance air intake or flue

 

 

 

outlet are preventing proper

 

 

 

combustion airflow.

 

 

2.

Moisture or debris in tubing that

 

 

 

connects pressure switch and

 

 

 

draft inducer.

 

 

3.

Airflow switch jumpered or

 

 

 

miswired.

 

 

 

4 Flashes

Limit or rollout switch is open.

1. Open manual reset rollout switch.

 

 

2.

Gas pressure too high, over fire

 

 

 

condition.

 

 

3.

Incorrect airflow due to blockage

 

 

 

or motor not operating.

 

 

 

5 Flashes

Flame sensed while gas valve is off.

1. Flame probe miswired

 

 

 

or shortened.

 

 

 

6 Flashes

On-board microprocessors disagree.

1. Thermostat is interfering

 

 

 

with control board.
