Remedy

 

 

 

14

Thermal Fuse

Check gas type of unit and ensure it matches gas type being used.

 

 

Check for restrictions in air flow around unit and vent terminal.

 

 

Check for low water flow in a circulating system causing short-cycling.

 

 

Ensure dip switches are set to the proper position.

 

 

Check for foreign materials in combustion chamber and/or exhaust piping.

 

 

Check heat exchanger for cracks and/or separations.

 

 

Check heat exchanger surface for hot spots which indicate blockage due to scale build-

 

 

up. Refer to instructions in manual for flushing heat exchanger.

 

 

Measure resistance of safety circuit.

 

 

Ensure high fire and low fire manifold pressure is correct.

 

 

Check for improper conversion of product.

16

Over Temperature

Check for restrictions in air flow around unit and vent terminal.

 

Warning

Check for low water flow in a circulating system causing short-cycling.

 

 

Check for foreign materials in combustion chamber and/or exhaust piping.

 

 

Check for clogged heat exchanger.

32

Outgoing Water

Check sensor wiring for damage.

 

Temperature Sensor

Measure resistance of sensor.

 

Fault

Clean sensor of scale build-up.

 

 

Replace sensor.

33

Heat Exchanger

Check sensor wiring for damage.

 

Outgoing Temperature

Measure resistance of sensor.

 

Sensor Fault

Clean sensor of scale build-up.

 

 

Replace sensor.

34

Combustion Air

Check for restrictions in air flow around unit and vent terminal.

 

Temperature Sensor

Check sensor wiring for damage.

 

Fault

Measure resistance of sensor.

 

 

Clean sensor of scale build-up.

 

 

Ensure fan blade is tight on motor shaft and is in good condition.

 

 

Replace sensor.

52

Modulating Solenoid

Check modulating gas solenoid valve wiring harness for loose or damaged terminals.

 

Valve Signal Abnormal

Measure resistance of valve coil.

61

Combustion Fan

Ensure fan will turn freely.

 

Failure

Check wiring harness to motor for damaged and/or loose connections.

 

 

Measure resistance of motor winding.

65

Water Flow Control

The water flow control valve has failed to close during the bath fill function. Immediately

 

Fault

turn off the water and discontinue the bath fill function. Contact a state qualified or

 

 

licensed contractor to service the appliance.

71

SV0, SV1, SV2, and

Check wiring harness to all solenoids for damage and/or loose connections.

 

SV3 Solenoid Valve

Measure resistance of each solenoid valve coil.

 

Circuit Fault

 

72

Flame Sensing Device

Ensure flame rod is touching flame when unit fires.

 

Fault

Check all wiring to flame rod for damage.

 

 

Remove flame rod and check for carbon build-up; clean with sand paper.

 

 

Check inside burner chamber for any foreign material blocking flame at flame rod.

 

 

Measure micro amp output of sensor circuit with flame present.

 

 

Replace flame rod.

LC

Scale Build-up in Heat

Flush heat exchanger. Refer to instructions in manual.

 

Exchanger (when

Replace heat exchanger.

water flow is activated.

On new installations ensure hot and cold water lines are not reversed.

 

 

Check for bleed over. Isolate unit from building by turning off hot water line to building.

 

 

Isolate the circulating system if present. Open your pressure relief valve; if water is

 

 

flowing, there is bleed over in your plumbing.

 

 

Ensure you have at least the minimum flow rate required to fire unit.

 

 

Ensure turbine spins freely.

 

 

Measure the resistance of the water flow control sensor.

 

 

Check for DC shorts at components.
