TROUBLESHOOTING

SL 20-115 MODULATING GAS BOILER

5.0 TROUbLESHOOTING

the troubleshooting section is divided into 3 sections:

5.1 Preliminary Checks
5.2 Electronic Components
5.3 Troubleshooting Guide

Often, a problem can be identified and solved through simple checks of the

basics: confirming the electrical power supply, gas flow and resetting the

thermostat control. to extend the cover of such preliminary checks, the boiler’s

control module offers a clear visual display of the status of the various control

circuit components.
should a problem remain unsolved after applying the preliminary checks,

proceed to the detailed system review, using the troubleshooting guide. the

guide covers potential error conditions as grouped into the following categories:

5.3.1 Using Control Module Errors Displayed
5.3.2 Ignition Problems
5.3.3 Cycling Problems
5.3.4 Temperature Problems
5.3.5 Miscellaneous

Below each section is a list of symptoms, diagnoses, and remedies.
also provided with this manual are a number of diagrams

(see Section 6.0)

for

use with troubleshooting including:

•

electrical Wiring diagrams

•

sequence of operations Flowchart

•

Boiler Component layout diagrams

The first step in troubleshooting this system should be a review of the Controller’s

lCd screen. there are a number of diagnostic features incorporated in the

software that evaluate system integrity, display error conditions and provide initial

suggested remedial actions

(see Section 2.5.6 Error Mode.)

in addition to checking the display, the following list is a guideline for

troubleshooting:

Confirm power to the boiler: check that control module display is on (e.g.

display is lit).

Check that boiler is not in a safety lockout.

ensure wiring is clean and secure.

Check that gas is reaching the unit.

Confirm water system is properly charged to 12 psig and pump is

serviceable.

5.1

NOTE

This boiler is equipped with a

blocked vent shutoff system,

which closes the gas supply

upon detection of an irregular

venting condition. In such

event, the electronic controller

will automatically carry out a

reset/ retry every 5 minutes.

See Section 5.3.1 Airflow Error

for Troubleshooting steps.
