  Instructions in this supplement are based 

on factory default parameter settings.

SOFT LOCKOUT   

[Display flashes 9, then b in first position; last two digits on steady (code)]

25

Outlet water temp rose too quickly 
— burner off for 10 minute wait 
(burner recycles, increasing wait 1 
minute each attempt, to a max of 
15 minutes)

1

Possible hot water return from DHW tank.

2

Make sure system does not have trapped air preventing proper flow.

3

Inspect and verify system piping and components.

4

Verify piping agrees with boiler manual recommendations.

5

Verify proper circulator(s) operation.

6

Possible loose connector on boiler outlet sensor.  Tighten connector.

7

Possible bad boiler supply outlet sensor.

26

External limit open on limit wired 
in soft lockout circuit (auto reset).  
Low voltage terminals 6 and 7.  
Burner off for 150 seconds

1

If no external limit connected to 6 & 7, verify green jumper wire making good electrical 
contact with screw terminals.

2

If external limit connected, verify proper limit operation.

29

Blower signal not zero when it 
should be  — Burner off until signal 
condition corrected

1

Change display to Information mode — if INFO #6 shows 6._32, the blower has 
failed.

2

Possible strong wind blowing against vent turning blower wheel,  correct venting.

3

Defective blower.

4

Defective control module.

30

Temperature rise across boiler 
more than 45°F. — Burner off for 
150 second wait (plus 1 additional 
minute for each failed attempt, 
up to 20 times, then hard lockout 
occurs

1

Flow problem through boiler — Temperature rise through boiler should be less than 
35°F.

2

Make sure system does not have trapped air preventing proper flow.

3

Inspect and verify system piping and components (including pipe size and circulator 
capacity).

4

Verify piping agrees with boiler manual recommendations.

5

Verify proper circulator(s) operation.

6

Possible loose connector on boiler supply/return sensor(s).  Tighten connector.

7

Possible bad supply/return sensor — replace sensor.

35

Short circuit across flue 
temperature sensor terminals — 
Burner off until corrected

1

Shorted wiring to flue sensor— correct the wiring.

2

Defective flue sensor — replace sensor. 

40

Open circuit across flue 
temperature sensor terminals — 
Burner off until corrected

1

Shorted wiring to flue sensor— correct the wiring.

2

Defective flue sensor — replace sensor. 

52

Flue Temperature exceeded 216 °F. 
but did not exceed 225 °F (hard 
lockout occurs above 225 °F — 
Burner off for 150 second wait

1

Verify flue temperature with thermometer.  If actual temperature does not correlate with 
Information mode #5 replace flue sensor.

2

Heat exchanger may need to be cleaned.  Follow the boiler maintenance procedure given 
in this guide, page 33.

3

Burner problem — verify gas pressure, burner firing rate and combustion per Ultra 
Boiler manual procedures — correct any problems.

If combustion is not acceptable, see page 38 in this guide.

65

Waiting for blower to start

1

Change display to Information mode — if INFO #6 shows 6._32, the blower has 
failed.

2

Verify blower wiring, 120 VAC on high voltage connector, if no120VAC, inspect/replace 
wire harness, or control module.

3

Defective blower.

4

Defective control module.
