PROBLEM

CAUSE

REMEDY

Damper does not open.

Indoor Fan is Off.

Check to ensure that 24 vac is present at Terminal C1 (Common Power)

 

 

on the IFC (Indoor Fan contactor) or that 24 vac is present at

 

 

the IFO (Indoor Fan On) terminal. Check whether 24 vac is

 

 

present at PL (Plug) 6-1 (red wire) and/or PL6-3 (black wire). If 24 vac is

 

 

not present, check wiring (see unit label diagram).

 

 

Check proper thermostat connection to G on the connection board.

wiring (see unit label diagram). If 24 vac is present, STATUS light should

 

 

be on constantly.

 

No power to G Terminal.

If IFM is on, check to ensure 24 vac is present on G Terminal of the

 

 

EconoMi$er controller. If 24 vac is not present, check wiring (see unit

 

 

label diagram).

 

Controller fault.

If STATUS light is flashing one flash, the EconoMi$er controller is

 

 

experiencing a fault condition. Cycle power to the controller. If condition

 

 

continues, replace the EconoMi$er controller.

 

Thermostat fault.

If STATUS light is flashing two flashes, the EconoMi$er controller senses

 

 

the thermostat is wired incorrectly. Check wiring between the thermostat

 

 

and the connection board in the electrical panel. The fault condition is

 

 

caused by Y2 being energized before Y1.

 

Actuator Fault.

Check the wiring between the EconoMi$er controller and the actuator.

 

 

Hold CONFIG button between three and ten seconds to verify the

 

 

actuator’s operation. (This process takes three minutes to complete.)
