Service Manual

Label all wires prior to disconnection
when servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Always disconnect power to
the boiler before servicing. Failure to
comply could result in severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property
damage.

Never jumper (bypass) any device except
for momentary testing as outlined in the
Troubleshooting chart. Severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property
damage can result.

Before troubleshooting:

1. Have the following items:

a.

Voltmeter that can check 120 VAC, 24 VAC, and
12 VDC.

b.

Continuity checker.

c.

Contact thermometer.

2. Check for 120 VAC (minimum 102 VAC to maximum

132 VAC) to boiler.

3. Make sure thermostat is calling for heat and contacts

(including appropriate zone controls) are closed. Check
for 24 VAC between thermostat wire nuts and ground.

4. Make sure all external limit controls are installed and

operating.

Check the following:

1. Wire connectors to control module are securely plugged

in at the control module and originating control.

2. Gas pressures:

• Maximum: 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa) natural,

14 inches w.c. (3.2 kPa) LP with no flow (lockup)
or with boiler on

• Minimum: 4 inches (5 inches on 1.0 models only) w.c.

(1.0 kPa) natural, 8 inches w.c. (2.0 kPa) LP with gas
flowing (verify during boiler startup)

Check control module fuses

ALWAYS check control module fuses
before replacing control module or any
major components (blower, etc.). If one of
these fuses is blown, it can prevent the
control module or other components from
operating.

1.

Turn OFF the power to the boiler at the external line
switch.

2.

Remove the front access cover.

3.

Remove the two (2) screws securing the control panel to
the unit to gain access to the control module.

4.

Inspect fuses F2, F3, F4, and F5, see FIG 3-1 below.

F4 - 3.15 AMP FUSE

BLOWER

F3 - 1.25 AMP FUSE

MAIN BOARD

F5 - 5 AMP FUSE

Figure 3-1 Control Module Fuses

5. The boiler is shipped with six (6) spare fuses in a plastic

bag located under the low water cutoff on the control
module.

6. If necessary, replace open fuse (F3 is 1.25 amps, F2 and F4

are 3.15 amps, and F5 is 5 amps).

Note: Fuses F2 - F5 are all slow blow fuses.

Do not jumper fuse or replace with any
fuse except as specified. Failure to comply
could result in severe personal injury,
death, or substantial property damage.

7. Re-install the control panel using the two (2) screws

removed in Step 3. Re-install the front access cover after
fuse inspection.

8. Restore power to the boiler at the external line switch and

verify boiler operation (Section 9 - Start-up in the SYNC
Boiler Installation and Operation Manual) after
completing boiler service.
