You have inadequate combustion--air supply. This may be caused by:
-- Reversed vent and combustion--air pipes.
-- Poor burner, manifold, or orifice alignment.
-- Blocked heat exchanger.
-- Leak somewhere between primary and secondary heat exchangers.
-- Leak in secondary heat exchanger.

Does furnace have the proper limit switch, limit shield, blower baffle (if used), and rear air
baffle (if used)? If so, are the limit switch, limit shield, and heat exchangers properly
aligned?

Lockout may have been caused by excessive return--air restriction. Check all dampers,
filters, and return--air grilles for blockage. Add more return--air openings if necessary. Use
Appendix D to evaluate external static pressure. Reference status code 33 for additional
troubleshooting steps.

Status Code 14
IGNITION LOCKOUT -- This status code indicates the furnace failed to ignite gas and/or prove flame in 4 attempts. The
variable speed furnace control will auto--reset in 3 hours. If the inducer motor is not running during lockout refer to
status code 34.
If the inducer motor is running at full speed during lockout this indicates that flame sense was lost 3 times within 60
minutes of cumulative gas valve operating time after the gas valve was already ON for 70 seconds. It is usually
caused by flame rollout that causes loss of flame sense before the flame rollout switch can trip.
Status Code 15
BLOWER MOTOR LOCKOUT -- This status code indicates the blower failed to reach 250 RPM or the blower failed to
communicate to the variable speed furnace control within 30 seconds after being turned ON in two successive heating
cycles. Control will auto reset after 3 hours. Refer to status code 41.
Status Code 21
GAS HEATING LOCKOUT -- This status code indicates the main gas valve relay MGVR on the variable speed furnace
control is stuck closed or there is a miswire/short to gas valve wiring. Make sure the BLUE wire goes to the gas valve
M terminal and the GREEN/YELLOW wire goes to the gas valve C terminal. The variable speed furnace control will
NOT auto--reset.
