CHART 7 — Insufficient heat or no heat to system (POWER light on steady)

Electrical shock hazard — Wherever you see TURN OFF POWER, follow the instructions. Failure to follow instructions could result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

• Has it been at least 5 minutes since setting thermostat to call for heat? If not, wait 5 minutes. Is system heating?

• Is thermostat set to call for heat? Remove thermostat wires at boiler and check continuity across the two wires. If circuit isn't closed, check external thermostat (zone valve, relay, etc.) wiring. Correct problems and retry.

• Reconnect external thermostat wiring at boiler.

Is thermostat circuit closed (continuity across wires)?

No

 

Yes

 

 

 

 

Is boiler System circulator operating?

No

Yes

Remove CIRCULATOR harness plug from CIRCULATOR plug receptacle (Figure 38, Item 7, page 50). Check with voltmeter across pins of control module receptacle.

Does voltmeter show 120 VAC across pins?

No

Yes

Are all red lights off?

No Yes

Wait 30 seconds. Are all red lights off?

No Yes

Replace control module. Retest.

Boiler is in standby.

Set thermostat to call for heat and recheck
