LIMIT CONTROLS
There is a high temperature limit control located on the furnace vesti- bule panel near the gas valve. This is an automatic reset control that provides over temperature protection due to reduced airflow. This may be caused by:
1.A dirty filter.
2.If the indoor fan motor should fail.
3.Too many supply or return registers closed or blocked off.
The control module will lockout if the limit trips 5 consecutive times. If this occurs, control will reset & try ignition again after 1 hour.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The following describes the sequence of operation of the furnace. Refer to Owners Manual for component location.
Continuous Blower
Cooling/heating thermostats have a fan switch that has an ON and AUTO position. In the ON position the thermostat circuit is completed between terminals R and G. The motor will operate continuously on the speed tap wire that is connected to the “HI COOL” cooling terminal on the control board. To obtain a constant air circulation at lower flow rate, change the
Intermittent Blower - Cooling
Cooling/heating thermostats have a fan switch that has an ON and AUTO position. In the AUTO position the thermostat circuit is completed between terminals R and G when there is a call for cooling. The motor will operate on the speed tap wire that is connected to the “HI COOL” cooling terminal on the control board. The fan off setting is fixed at 60 seconds to improve cooling efficiency.
Heating Cycle
When the thermostat switch is set on HEAT and the fan is set on AUTO, and there is a call for heat, a circuit is completed between terminals R and W of the thermostat. When the proper amount of combustion air is being provided, the pressure switch will close, the ignition control pro- vides a
If the flame is not detected within 7 seconds of the gas valve opening, the gas valve is shut off and a retry operation begins. Also, if the flame is lost for 2 seconds during the
A momentary loss of gas supply, flame blowout, or a faulty flame probe circuit will result in a disruption in the flame and be sensed within 1.0 seconds. The gas valve will
During burner operation, a momentary loss of power for 50 milliseconds or longer will
Hot Surface Ignition System
HOT SURFACE IGNITION SYSTEM
Do not attempt to light this furnace by hand (with a match or any other means). There may be a potential shock hazard from the components of the hot surface ignition system. The furnace can only be lit automatically by its hot surface ignition system.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The following visual checks should be made before troubleshooting:
1.Check to see that the power to the furnace and the ignition control module is ON.
2.The manual
3.Make sure all wiring connections are secure.
4.Review the sequence of operation. Start the system by setting the thermostat above the room temperature. Observe the system’s response. Then use the troubleshooting section in this manual to check the system’s operation.
Never bypass any safety control to allow furnace opera- tion. To do so will allow furnace to operate under poten- tially hazardous conditions.
Do not try to repair controls. Replace defective controls with UPG Source 1 Parts.
Never adjust pressure switch to allow furnace operation.
FURNACE CONTROL DIAGNOSTICS
The furnace has
The control continuously monitors its own operation and the operation of the system. If a failure occurs, the LED will indicate the failure code. If the failure is internal to the control, the light will stay on continuously. In this case, the entire control should be replaced, as the control is not field repairable.
Flash sequence codes 1 through 11 are as follows: LED will turn “on” for 1/4 second and “off” for 1/4 second. This pattern will be repeated the number of times equal to the code. For example, six “on” flashes equals a number 6 fault code. All flash code sequences are broken by a 2 sec- ond “off” period.
SLOW GREEN FLASH: Normal operation.
SLOW AMBER FLASH: Normal operation with call for heat.
RAPID RED FLASH: Twinning error, incorrect 24V phasing. Check twinning wiring.
RAPID AMBER FLASH: Flame sense current is below 1.5 microamps. Check and clean flame sensor. Check for proper gas flow. Verify that current is greater than 1.5 microamps at flame current test pad.
4 AMBER FLASHES: The control is receiving a “Y” signal from the thermostat without a “G” signal, indicating improper thermostat wiring.
1 RED FLASH: This indicates that flame was sensed when there was not a call for heat. The control will turn on both the inducer motor and supply air blower. A gas valve that leaks or is slow closing would typi- cally cause this fault.
2 RED FLASHES: This indicates that the normally open pressure switch contacts are stuck in the closed position. The control confirms these contacts are open at the beginning of each heat cycle. This would indicate a faulty pressure switch or miswiring.
