Is circuit breaker closed?

Close door switch and go to start.

Is red LED status light on?

Is door switch closed?

Is red LED status light blinking

rapidly without a pause?

Is there 1

15v going to switch?

Replace door switch.

Replace control center

.

Replace transformer

.

Is red LED status light blinking

ON/OFF slowly with a

combination of short and long

flashes?

Check for correct line voltage

polarity

. If units are twinned,

check for proper low-voltage

(24v) transformer phasing.

Check for previous fault by

momentarily shorting the 

TEST

terminal and the C terminal until

the LED goes out. LED will flash

the status code of any previous

fault or the code No. 1

1

 (1 short

and 1 long flash) if no previous

fault. 

After the control repeats the

code 3 times, the control will go

through a brief component test

sequence. 

The inducer will start

and run for the entire component

test. 

The HSI, blower motor heat

speed, and blower motor cool

speed will run for 10-15 sec each.

Determine status code. 

The

status code is a 2 digit number

with the first digit determined by

the number of short flashes and

the second digit by the number of

long flashes.

W

as there a previous fault code

other than No. 1

1

?

Does control respond to W

Y

,

or G 24-vac thermostat signals?

Run system through a heating or

cooling cycle to check operation.

Status codes are erased after 48

hrs or whenever power (1

15v

or 24v) is interrupted.

Go to section with status code

determined.

Is there 1

15v at L1 and L2?

Close circuit breaker and

go back to start.

Check for continuity in wire from circuit

breaker to furnace.
