General
These instructions are written as if the furnace is installed in an
upflow application. An upflow furnace application is where the
blower is located below the combustion and controls section of
the furnace, and conditioned air is discharged upward. Since
this furnace can be installed in any of the 4 positions shown in
Figure 7
, you must revise your orientation to component
location accordingly.

WARNING
The electrical ground and polarity for 115
−
v wiring must be
properly maintained. Refer to
Figure 8
for field wiring
information and to
Figure 16
for furnace wiring information.
NOTE
: If the polarity is not correct, the STATUS LED on the
control will flash code 10 and prevent the furnace from heating.
The control system also requires an earth ground for proper
operation of the control and flame
−
sensing electrode.
The 24
−
v circuit contains an automotive
−
type, 3
−
amp. fuse
located on the control. (See
Figure 4
) Any shorts of the 24
−
v
wiring during installation, service, or maintenance will cause
this fuse to blow. If fuse replacement is required, use ONLY a
3
−
amp. fuse. The control LED display will be off when fuse
needs to be replaced.
Troubleshooting
Refer to the service label. (See
Figure 15
—Service Label)
The Troubleshooting Guide
−
Flow Chart (See
Figure 17
) can
be a useful tool in isolating furnace operation problems.
Beginning with the word “Start,” answer each question and
follow the appropriate arrow to the next item.
The Guide
−
Flow Chart will help to identify the problem or
failed component. After replacing any component, verify correct
operation sequence.
Proper instrumentation is required to service electrical controls.
The control in this furnace is equipped with a Status Code LED
(Light
−
Emitting Diode) to aid in installation, servicing, and
troubleshooting. Status codes can be viewed at the indicator in
blower door. The amber furnace control LED is either a
heartbeat, off or a code composed of 1 or 2 digits. The first digit
is the number of short flashes, the second digit is the number of
long flashes.
