3 Troubleshooting (continued)

WARNING Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can

cause improper and dangerous operation. Always disconnect power to the boiler before servicing. Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage.

WARNING Never jumper (bypass) any device except for momentary testing as outlined in the

Troubleshooting chart. Severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage can result.

Before troubleshooting:

1.Have the following items:

a.Voltmeter that can check 120 VAC, 24 VAC, and 12 VDC.

b.Continuity checker.

c.Contact thermometer.

2.Check for 120 VAC (minimum 102 VAC to maximum 132 VAC) to boiler.

3.Make sure thermostat is calling for heat and contacts (including appropriate zone controls) are closed. Check for 24 VAC between thermostat wire nuts and ground.

4.Make sure all external limit controls are installed and operating.

Check the following:

1.Wire connectors to control module are securely plugged in at the control module and originating control.

2.Gas pressures:

Maximum: 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa) natural, 14 inches w.c. (3.2 kPa) LP with no flow (lockup) or with boiler on

Minimum: 4 inches (5 inches on 1.0 models only) w.c. (1.0 kPa) natural, 8 inches w.c. (2.0 kPa) LP with gas flowing (verify during boiler startup)

Check control module fuses

NOTICE

ALWAYS check control module fuses

before replacing control module or any

 

 

major components (blower, etc.). If one

 

of these fuses is blown, it can prevent the

 

control module or other components from

 

operating.

1.Turn OFF the power to the boiler at the external line switch.

2.Remove the front access cover.

3.Remove the two (2) screws securing the control panel to the unit to gain access to the control module.

4.Remove the two (2) nuts on the control module cover.

5.Inspect fuses F2, F3, F4, and F5, see FIG 3-1.

6.The boiler is shipped with six (6) spare fuses in a plastic bag located under the low water cutoff on the control module.

7.If necessary, replace open fuse (F3 is 1.25 amps, F2 and F4 are 3.15 amps, and F5 is 5 amps).

Note: Fuses F2 - F5 are all slow blow fuses.

WARNING Do not jumper fuse or replace with any fuse except as specified. Failure to comply

could result in severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage.

8.Re-install the control module cover using the nuts removed in Step 4.

Note: If the spark wire was unplugged, reattach it to the control.

9.Re-install the control panel using the two (2) screws removed in Step 3. Re-install the front access cover after fuse inspection.

10.Restore power to the boiler at the external line switch and verify boiler operation (Section 9 - Start-up in the SYNC Boiler Installation and Operation Manual) after completing boiler service.
