SYMPTOM	CAUSE		REMEDY
	Water in gas line	Drain. Install drip leg.
	No power to furnace	Check power supply fuses, wiring or circuit breaker.
		Check transformer.
	No 24--v power supply to control circuit	NOTE: Some transformers have internal over--current protection
		that requires a cool--down period to reset.
Burners will not ignite
	Mis--wired or loose connections	Check all wiring and wire nut connections
	Misaligned spark electrodes	Check flame ignition and sense electrode positioning.
		Adjust as necessary.
		1.	Check gas line for air. Purge as necessary. NOTE: After purging
	No gas at main burners	gas line of air, wait at least 5 minutes for any gas to dissipate be-
		fore attempting to light unit.
		2.	Check gas valve.
	Dirty air filter	Clean or replace filter as necessary
	Gas input to furnace too low	Check gas pressure at manifold match with that on unit nameplate
Inadequate heating	Unit undersized for application	Replace with proper unit or add additional unit
	Restricted airflow	Clean or replace filter. Remove any restriction.
	Limit switch cycles main burners	Check rotation of blower, temperature rise of unit. Adjust as neces-
		sary.
		1.	Tighten all screws around burner compartment
		2.	Cracked heat exchanger. Replace.
	Incomplete combustion results in: Aldehyde odors,	3.	Unit over--fired. Reduce input (change orifices or adjust gas line
Poor flame characteristics		or manifold pressure).
	carbon monoxide, sooting flame, floating flame
		4.	Check burner alignment.
		5.	Inspect heat exchanger for blockage. Clean as necessary.
