After fuel valve opens, does the burner ignite?

For the GMD, measure gas supply pressure at inlet to gas valve. Is it at least 4.5" W.G. for natural gas or 11" W.G. for L.P. gases? For the OMD, is oil present in

the fuel line at the valve?

Yes

No

Check the fuel supply. Open all manual shutoff valves serving the unit.

Purge any air in the fuel line.

Yes

Are the ignition electrodes

 

No

 

Reposition to

 

 

 

positioned correctly?

 

 

correct location.

Yes

Check for blocked or severely worn burner nozzle (OMD) or burner orifice (GMD). Clean or replace as required.

Does the burner stay lit past proof of flame check?

Yes

No

Yes

On the GMD, measure supply &

 

manifold pressures. Are they

 

constant over time and within the

No

allowable ranges? On the OMD,

 

is the oil tank full of fuel? Is the

 

fuel clean without contaminates?

 

Is the fuel filter dirty?

 

On the GMD, adjust supply pressure to 4.5" W.G. for natural & 11" W.G. for LP gases. Adjust manifold pressure to 3.5" W.G. for natural gas or 10" W.G. for LP gases. If gas pressure fluctuates, a pressure regulator may be required or gas piping may be too small for flow. On the OMD, add or replace fuel and fuel filter. Also, check flame sensor (GMD), cad cell (OMD) for proper operation.

Does the fan timer

energize the circulating air blower after the 56 second time delay?

Yes

No

Check settings on fan

timer against those

on connection

diagram. Is blower

still inoperable after time delay with fan timer set correctly?

Yes

Measure voltage on the circulating air blower terminals. Is it 120 VAC?

Yes

Does blower wheel

spin freely?

Yes

Is blower motor

capacitor functioning

properly?

Yes

Replace motor

 

 

 

Check wiring to

 

 

 

 

blower. If okay,

switch to manual.

 

 

 

 

If fan operates,

 

 

 

 

replace fan timer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No

Check for blower wheel

 

rubing against housing

 

 

or motor shaft spinning

 

freely. Adjust or replace

 

 

 

as necessary.

No

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Replace blower
