Non critical alarm

6

Flame sensed out of normal sequence (before opening or after closing gas 

valve).

Soft lockout

18

Gas valve relays welded. Five consecutive soft lockouts.

Hard lockout

23

Flame sensed during prepurge ( before gas valve signaled opened).

Soft lockout

32

Sensor  1  error.    Temperature  sensor  in  well  is  not  reading  correctly.                       

Verify it is connected to board.  Replace if necessary.

59

Line Voltage error - voltage out of speci

fi

 cation high or low (15-37V (44-

66Hz))

Wait for recovery

60

Applies only to thermostats having on-board transformer.  

Polarity is wrong in this case.

Wait for recovery

Thermostat input higher than threshold.

61

Line voltage unstable - possibly too may heavy loads switching on and off 

causing erratic supply voltage.

Wait for recovery

62

Soft lockout: maximum number of retries exceeded.

Soft lockout

Soft lockout is reset after one hour if alarm reason disappears.

63

Soft lockout: maximum number of recycles exceeded.

Soft lockout

64

Soft Lockout - electronics failure. On-board self diagnostics detected error.

Soft lockout

65

Over temperature error.  Sensor measured temperature in excess of 

maximum allowable limit.

Soft lockout

 Note: Soft lockout time is 1 hour or manual reset. Hard lockout requires manual reset.

Ignition System Checks

STEP 1: 

Check ignition cable.

Verify ignition cable does not run in contact with 

• 

metal surfaces.
Verify only factory supplied Ignition cable (or 

• 

approved replacement) is used.
Verify connections to ignition module and igniter or 

• 

igniter-sensor are clean and tight.
Verify ignition cable provides good electrical 

• 

continuity.

STEP 2:

Verify ignition system grounding. Nuisance shutdowns 

are often caused poor or erratic grounding.

Common ground is required for module and pilot  

burner/igniter sensor.

— Check for good metal-to-metal contact between

  pilot burner bracket and the main burner.

— Check ground lead from GND (BURNER) terminal 

on module to pilot burner.  Verify connections 

are clean and tight. If wire is damaged or 

deteriorated, replace with No. 14-18 gauge, 

moisture-resistant, thermoplastic insulated wire 

with 105°C [221°F] minimum rating.

— Check ceramic 

fl

 ame rod insulator for cracks or 

evidence of exposure to extreme heat, which can 

permit leakage to ground. Replace pilot burner/

igniter sensor and provide shield if necessary.

— If 

fl

 ame rod or bracket is bent out of position, 

restore to correct position.
