TROUBLE SHOOTING
ERROR CODES
The VCS-4000MODTC control module has built-in error detection for several common operating fault conditions. When
the control module detects an error, it will emit a series of beeps. The beeping pattern will help to determine the cause of
the operating fault
.
Ignition Safety (Protection for Ignition system):
Error Code
: One beep every one second.
Description of Fault
: Warn users if the pilot is not successfully ignited in 20 seconds.
How to Clear:
Press OFF then ON buttons to re-attempt ignition.
What to Check
:
1.
Ensure gas supply is turned ON.
2.
Ensure that the gas line is purged of air. Air is common in the gas line if the appliance has just been installed, has
been disconnected then re-connected to the gas line, or if the appliance has been unused for an extended period
of time.
3.
Ensure there is no blockage in the gas line.
4.
Ensure batteries in the battery pack are a minimum of 5.3 volts. If not, replace them.
5.
Make sure that the flame is properly contacting the thermocouple on the pilot assembly and check for soot
build-up. Clean soot if present.
6.
Ensure orange/white leads from module are plugged into the “PILOT” connection on the valve body.
7.
Ensure green/white leads from module are plugged into the “MAIN” connection on the valve body.
8.
Verify lead from pilot assembly is connected to the “I” terminal on the module.
9.
Verify lead from thermocouple is connected to the “S” terminal on the module and thermocouple ground terminal
is connected to ground at the gas valve (See Fig. 32 on page 28).
10.
Verify that the black ground lead from the module is connected to a proper ground on the appliance and check for
frayed or pinched wires on the sensor wire lead.
Sensor Safety (Protection for Flame sensor):
Error Code
: 4 Beeps every one second (Constant beeping)
Description of Fault
: Warn users the flame sensor detects a flame already present when ignition sequence is initiated.
Also if thermocouple is not given enough time to cool off (30 seconds or more) before re-lighting appliance.
How to Clear
: Press OFF then ON buttons to re-attempt normal ignition.
What to Check
:
1.
Allow thermocouple to cool off minimum of 30 seconds.
2.
Check if flame is actually present when valve is turned OFF (if so, replace valve).
3.
Check to ensure ground wire from thermocouple and module are connected to gas valve.
