No Cycling or appliance power
or thermostat call for heat
since appliance failure has
occured.

Line voltage power can
cause product damage,
severe injury or death.
Only a trained experienced
service technician should
perform this trouble-
shooting.

1. Check the system thermo-

stat to make sure it is call-
ing for heat. (Do not cycle
the thermostat on and off
at this time.)

2. Remove the appliance

burner compartment door.
Do not interrupt power to
the control board by
opening any electrically
interlocked panels.

3. Observe the LED indicator

on the control board (a
green LED labeled “OK”
indicates system faults);
check and repair system as
noted in the chart to the
right.

*NOTICE: Air flow proving
switch and power venter
hose barbs must be free of
any dust or debris at all
times. Periodically check
these openings and/or if any
problems occur.

Not Applicable

Not Applicable

1. Line voltage on terminals 120

and C on transformer.

2. Low voltage (24V) on terminals

24 and C on transformer.

3. 5 Amp fuse on circuit board.

1. Common side of transformer

grounded to chassis.

2. Loose spark ignitor.

1. Gas supply off or gas supply

pressure too low.

2. Flame sense rod contaminated

or loose wire.

3. Gas valve switch is off or wires

are not connected.

4. Broken or cracked porcelain on

flame probe or spark ignitor.

1. Obstructions or restrictions

in appliance air intake or flue
outlet are preventing proper
combustion airflow.

2. Moisture or debris in tubing that

connects pressure switch and
draft inducer.

3. Airflow switch jumpered or

miswired.

1. Open manual reset rollout switch.
2. Gas pressure too high, over fire

condition.

3. Incorrect airflow due to blockage

or motor not operating.

1. Flame probe miswired

or shortened.

1. Thermostat is interfering

with control board.

Control OK, no call for heat.

Control OK, call for heat present.

Internal control fault, or no power.

Control internal failure or bad ground.

In lockout from failed ignitions
or flame losses.

Pressure Switch open with inducer on
or closed with inducer off.

Limit or rollout switch is open.

Flame sensed while gas valve is off.

On-board microprocessors disagree.
