“P-SW”, “OPEN”, and “CLEAN SCREEN” Flashing
The air pressure switch contacts
remain open longer than 11
seconds after the combustion fan
is energized
.
1
.
Clean the screen on the combustion air
intake chamber
.
Turn the power “OFF” for
10 to 20 seconds then “ON” again to clear
2
.
Ensure the pressure switch sensing tube
is in good condition and securel
y
connected at both ends
.
3
.
Ensure the inner door to the combustion
chamber is secure and the gasket is
properl
y
sealing
.

Check operation of the air intake chamber
A
.
Turn off power to the water heater
.
B

Remove the tubing from the pressure
switch and the wires from both
7.
“P-SW” and “SHORT” Flashing
The air pressure switch contacts
remain closed for more than 5
seconds when the
y
should be
open
.
1
.
Turn off power to the water heater
.
2
.
Locate the pressure switch wiring –
ensure pressure switch wiring is correct
and not jumped
.
3
.
Remove wires to both terminals on
pressure switch
.
4
.
Check pressure switch contacts with an
ohmmeter for continuit
y.
A
.
I
f pressure switch contacts show
continuit
y
(closed circuit) replace
the pressure switch
.
B
.
I
f pressure switch contacts show
open circuit and all wiring is correct
– replace the lower control
.
8.
“IGN” Flashing
Open ignitor circuit
1
.
Check all wiring to the hot surface ignitor
.
2
.
Check the 3 pin
M
olex ignitor assembl
y
plug and receptacle on the lower control
for a good connection
.
Repair or replace
parts if necessar
y.
3
.
Check resistance of the ignitor with an
ohmmeter on the ignitor assembl
y
plug
.
Replace ignitor if resistance is not within
1
.
72 and 2
.
40 ohms
.
4
.
I
f above checks are good – turn off
power for 10 seconds and then back on
.
I
f this error code will not clear and the
ignitor resistance is within specifications
– replace the lower control
