Troubleshooting 

Charts

Chart No. 1 - Thermostat calling for heat; 

Burner motor never attempts to run.

Determine and correct the

reason the backflow sensor

was activated. Once the

problem has been corrected,

push the manual reset button

on the backflow sensor and

follow the instructions to

relight the heater.

Replace the oil

preheater high limit.

YES

NO

Has there

been line voltage across

Terminals 1 and 2 for at least

15 minutes?

Check for line

voltage across Terminals

15 and 11. Is voltage

read?

Is inlet nozzle

adapter warm to the

touch?

Check for line

voltage across Terminals

17 and 2. Is voltage

read?

Check for line

voltage across Terminals

16 and 2. Is voltage

read?

Check for line

voltage across Terminals

4 and 2. Is voltage

read?

Measure the resistance

across the F-F

terminals on the

ignition controller.

Is the

resistance zero?

Correct

short circuit.

Is the

resistance greater than

1500 ohms?

Clean cell face

and seat firmly

into holder.

Is resistance

greater than 1500

ohms?

Is the overfire

draft correct?

Is the CO2

correct?

Replace

the cad cell.

Adjust for

proper CO2.

Adjust

barometric

damper.

Cad cell and

ignition controller

are OK.

Replace fan and

limit control

assembly.

Replace nozzle

low oil

temperature limit.

Check for

line voltage across "Tan"

oil heater wires and Terminal

11. Is voltage read?

Check continuity of

300 watt  element. Is there

sufficient ohms?

Replace oil heater

temperature control

(pre-heater).

Replace oil

heating element

(pre-heater).

Replace oil heater

low temperature

limit (pre-heater).

Check for

line voltage across 14

 and 11. Is voltage

read?

Check

for continuity of 30

watt heating elements. Is

continuity read?

Is cold

air discharging

from burner

tube?

Add draft

inducer

Replace 30 watt

heating

elements.

Replace nozzle

temperature

control.

Is the oil

preheater hot to the

touch?

Replace the oil

preheater

temperature control.

Check for line

voltage at the manual

disconnect switch. Is

voltage read?

Replace manual

disconnect

(on/off) switch.

Turn on or correct

supply. Wait 15

minutes for heater to

warm up.

disconnect switch and 

wait at least 15 minutes 

before proceeding.
