Status Code 33
LIMIT CIRCUIT FAULT -- This status code indicates the limit, or flame rollout switch is open or the furnace is operating
in high--heat only mode due to 2 successive low heat limit trips. Blower will run for 4 minutes or until the open switch
remakes whichever is longer. If open longer than 3 minutes, code changes to lockout #13. If open less than 3 minutes
status code #33 continues to flash until blower shuts off. Flame rollout switch requires manual reset.
