SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such as
cleaning and replacing air filters. All other operations must be performed
by trained service personnel. A qualified service person should inspect
the furnace once a year.
General
These instructions are written as if the furnace is installed in an upflow
application. An upflow furnace application is where the blower is
located below the combustion and controls section of the furnace, and
conditioned air is discharged upward. Since this furnace can be installed
in any of the 3 positions (see
), you must revise your orientation to
component location accordingly.
Electrical Controls and Wiring
The electrical ground and polarity for 115-v wiring must be properly
maintained. See field wiring information (see
) and for furnace
).
NOTE:
If the polarity is not correct, the STATUS LED on the control
will flash rapidly and prevent the furnace from heating. The control
system also requires an earth ground for proper operation of the control
and flame-sensing electrode.
The 24-v circuit contains an automotive-type, 3-amp. fuse located on the
control. (See
) Any shorts of the 24-v wiring during installation,
service, or maintenance will cause this fuse to blow. If fuse replacement
is required, use ONLY a 3-amp. fuse. The control LED will display a 24
flash code when fuse needs to be replaced.
Proper instrumentation is required to service electrical controls. The
control in this furnace is equipped with a Status Code LED
(Light-Emitting Diode) to aid in installation, servicing, and
troubleshooting. The furnace control LED is either ON continuously,
rapid flashing or displaying a code composed of 2 digits. The first digit
is the number of short flashes, the second digit is the number of long
flashes.
For an explanation of status codes, refer to service booklet located on
blower access door (see
), or the Service guide at the end of this
manual.
The stored status code will not be erased from the control memory, if
115- or 24-v power is interrupted.
1. To retrieve status code, proceed with the following:
NOTE:
NO thermostat signal may be present at control, and all
blower-OFF delays must be completed.
a. Remove blower access door.
b. Close blower door interlock switch.
c. Using a length of wire, briefly short the TEST/TWIN terminal to
the C terminal on the furnace control.
2. When above items have been completed, the LED flashes the most
recent fault code 4 times then begins the component test sequence.
3. Check LED status. If no previous faults in the history, control will
flash status code 11.
WARNING
!
FIRE, INJURY OR DEATH HAZARD

control board, etc.) before unit final disposal.
WARNING
!
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death,
or property damage.
Before installing, modifying, or servicing system, main electrical
disconnect switch must be in the OFF position and install a lockout tag.
There may be more than one disconnect switch. Lock out and tag
switch with a suitable warning label. Verify proper operation after
servicing. Always reinstall access doors after completing service and
maintenance.
CAUTION
!
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in improper furnace operation
or failure of furnace.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring
errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
