Check connections and retry. If current is near typical value
(4.0 to 6.0 microamps) and main burners will not stay on
longer than a few seconds, check the following:
- Air leakage around igniter bracket.
- Inadequate flame carryover on rough ignition.
- Low inlet gas pressure.
- Low manifold pressure. Reference installation instructions
for proper manifold pressure.
- Slow opening gas valve. Gas should flow at full pressure
within 4 seconds after the gas valve is energized.
If the above items are OK replace the variable speed fur-
nace control.

Clean flame sensor with fine sandpaper and make sure it is
properly positioned then recheck current. Current is typically
4.0 to 6.0 microamps.

Check the following:
- Make sure perforated disks are in combustion-air
vent inlet.
- Pressure tubing going to gas valve air pressure fitting for
kinks.
- Remove gas valve air pressure fitting and check gas valve
for blockage.
- Ensure vent and combustion-air pipes are not reversed.
- Burner orifice size and alignment.
- Inadequate flame carryover.
- Add restriction to combustion-air pipe or lengthen a few
feet if possible.

Furnace will operate at low-heat but will not ignite on low-
heat. Check the following:
- Inadequate flame carryover.
- Low manifold pressure. Reference installation instructions
for proper low-heat manifold pressure.
- Slow opening gas valve. Gas should flow at full pressure
within 4 seconds after the gas valve is energized.
- Flame sensor location.
- Air leakage around igniter bracket.

Furnace will not operate or ignite on low-heat. Check the
following:
- Flame sensor location.
- Very low manifold pressure.
Reference installation instructions for proper low-heat mani-
fold pressure. Turn low-heat regulator adjustment clockwise
1/4 turn. Repeat until furnace will operate in low-heat. Then
set to the proper manifold pressure. Re-orifice if necessary.
