• Furnace lockout due

to an excessive
number of ignition
“retries” (3 total)

.

• Auxiliary limit open

• Locate and correct gas

interruption.

• Replace or realign

igniter.

• Check flame sense

signal. Sand sensor if
coated and/or oxidized.

• Check flue piping for

blockage, proper length,
elbows, and termination.

• Verify proper induced

draft blower
performance.

• Check circulator blower

speed and performance.
Correct speed or replace
blower if necessary.

• Turn power OFF

prior to repair.

• Igniter is fragile,

handle with care.

• Sand flame sensor

with emery cloth.

• See “Combustion

and Ventilation Air
Requirements” and
“Category I
Venting (Vertical
Venting)” section
for details.

• See Product Data

Bulletin for
allowable rise
range and proper
circulator speed.

• Furnace fails to operate.

• Integrated control

module diagnostic LED
is flashing ONE (1)
flash.

• Failure to establish flame.

Cause may be no gas to
burners, bad igniter or
igniter alignment,
improper orifices, or
coated/oxidized or
improperly connected
flame sensor.

• Loss of flame after

establishment. Cause
may be interrupted gas
supply, lazy burner flames
(improper gas pressure or
restriction in flue or
improper induced draft
blower performance.

• Insufficient conditioned

air over the heat
exchanger. Blocked
filters, restrictive
ductwork, improper
circulator blower speed,
or failed circulator blower.

• Low stage pressure

switch circuit is
closed.

• Induced draft blower

is not operating.

• Replace induced draft

blower pressure
switch.

• Repair short.

• Turn power OFF

prior to repair.

• Replace pressure

switch with proper
replacement part.

• Furnace fails to operate.

• Integrated control

module diagnostic LED
is flashing TWO (2)
flashes.

• Induced draft blower

pressure switch contacts
sticking.

• Shorts in pressure switch

circuit.

• Inspect pressure

switch hose. Repair, if
necessary,

• Inspect flue for

blockage, proper
length, elbows, and
termination.

• Correct pressure

switch setpoint or
contact motion.

• Tighten or correct

wiring connection.

• Pressure switch hose

blocked, pinched or
connected improperly.

• Blocked flue or weak

induced draft blower.

• Incorrect pressure switch

setpoint or malfunctioning
switch contacts.

• Loose or improperly

connected wiring.

• Pressure switch

circuit not closed.

• Induced draft blower

is operating.

• Induced draft blower

runs continuously with
no further furnace
operation.

• Integrated control

24 volt wires improperly
connected or loose.

• Blown fuse or circuit

breaker.

• Intergrated contol module

has an internal fault

• Assure 115 and 24 volt

power to furnace
integrated control
module.

• Check integrated control

module fuse (3A).
Replace if necessary.

• Check for possible

shorts in 115 and 24 volt
circuits. Repair as
necessary.
