NOTE
This portion of the troubleshooting flow chart is to test operation of the auxilairy control board.
Furnaces built after January of 1998 were produced with this additional control. If a system built
before 1998 experiences element failure, Steffes recommends that the auxiliary control board be
added as a supplemental controller for monitoring core temperatures in systems which have ele
ment failure.
