SERVICE/STATUS CODE INSTRUCTIONS

If status code recall is needed disconnect the “R” thermostat lead, reset power, and put setup switch “SW1-1” in the ON position. To clear the status

code history put setup switch “SW1-1” in the ON position and jumper thermostat terminals “R”, “W/W1”, and “Y/Y2” simultaneously until the

Heartbeat flashes.

LED CODE

STATUS

CONTINUOUS OFF

-

Check 115 VAC at L1 and L2, 24 VAC at SEC-1 and SEC-2, and 24V fuse.

HEARTBEAT

-

(bright-dim-bright-dim) Control has 24 VAC power.

ON SOLID

-

The control is locked out and will auto reset after 1 hour. Lockout could be due to any of the following:

-

Flame sense circuit failure.

-

Gas valve relay stuck open.

-

Software check error.

Reset power to clear lockout. Replace control if status code repeats.

EACH OF THE FOLLOWING STATUS CODES IS A SINGLE OR TWO DIGIT NUMBER WITH THE FIRST NUMBER DETERMINED
BY THE NUMBER OF SHORT FLASHES AND THE SECOND NUMBER AFTER THE (+) SIGN IS THE NUMBER OF LONG
FLASHES.

2

PRESSURE SWITCH DID NOT OPEN

– Check for:

-

Obstructed pressure tubing.

-

Pressure switch stuck closed.

3

LOW PRESSURE SWITCH DID NOT CLOSE OR REOPENED

– Indicates the low pressure switch input failed to close on a call for

heat, or opened during minimum-heat. If opens during blower on-delay period, blower will come on for the selected blower off-delay. If

opens within 5 minutes after ignition the next heating cycle will be restricted to maximum-heat. Check for:

-

Proper vent sizing.

-

Air leak between vestibule and blower compartment.

-

Restricted vent.

-

Plugged condensate drain.

-

Low inlet gas pressure (if LGPS used).

-

Excessive wind. If problem persists turn setup switch “SW1-3” ON to boost inducer speed.

-

Improper pressure switch wiring.

-

Failed or “Out-of-Calibration” pressure switches.

-

Water in vent piping, possible sagging pipe.

-

Disconnected or obstructed pressure tubing.

4

LIMIT CIRCUIT FAULT

– Indicates the limit, or flame rollout is open or the furnace is operating in maximum-heat only mode due to 2

successive limit trips while operating at any rate less than or equal to 71% of maximum rate. Blower will run at intermediate heat airflow

for 4 minutes or until open switch remakes whichever is longer. If open longer than 3 minutes, code changes to lockout #7. If open less

than 3 minutes status code #4 continues to flash until blower shuts off. Flame rollout switch requires manual reset. Check for:

-

Loose blower wheel.

-

Defective switch or connections.

-

Improper minimum- or maximum-heat gas input adjustment.

-

Dirty filter or restricted duct system.

-

Improper limit switch or no limit gasket.

5

ABNORMAL FLAME-PROVING SIGNAL

– Flame is proved while gas valve is de-energized. Inducer will run until fault is cleared.

Check for:

-

Leaky gas valve.

-

Stuck-open gas valve.

6

IGNITION PROVING FAILURE

– Control will try three more times before lockout #6 + 1 occurs. If flame signal is lost during blower

on-delay period, blower will come on for the selected blower off-delay. Check for:

-

Low inlet gas pressure.

-

Control ground continuity.

-

Gas valve defective or turned off.

-

Defective Hot Surface Igniter.

-

Manual valve shut off.

-

Oxide buildup on flame sensor (clean with fine steel wool).

-

Proper flame sense micro amps (.5 micro amps DC min., 4.0 – 6.0 nominal).

-

Green/Yellow wire MUST be connected to furnace sheet metal.

-

Inadequate flame carryover or rough ignition.

-

Flame sensor must not be grounded.

7

LIMIT CIRCUIT LOCKOUT

– Lockout occurs if the limit, or flame rollout switch is open longer than 3 minutes or 10 successive limit

trips occurred during maximum-heat. Control will auto reset after 3 hours. Refer to status code #4.
