LED Flash code will cease if power to the control module is interrupted through the disconnect or door switch.
• Furnace lockout due to
an excessive number
of ignition attempts. (3
total)
1
• Auxiliary Limit Open
• Locate and correct gas
interruption.
• Replace or realign
igniter.
• Check flame sense
signal. Clean 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.
• Clean flame sensor
with steel wool.
• See “Combustion
and Ventilation Air
Requirements” and

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.
• M ain power interruption
during heat cycle causing
auxiliary limit to open.
• Pressure switch circuit
is closed.
• Induced draft blower is
not operating.
• Replace induced draft
blower pressure
switch.
• Repair short.

to repair.
• Replace pressure
switch with proper
replacement part.
• Furnace fails to operate.
• Integrated control module
diagnostic LED is flashing
TWO (2) flashes.

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.
• Inspect masonry chimney
and flue; remove
blockage.
• 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.

not closed.
• Induced draft blower is
operating.
• If installed, manual
reset limit switch is
open on M asonry
Vent Kit (MVK).
• Induced draft blower
runs continuously with
no further furnace
operation.
• Integrated control
module diagnostic LED
is flashing THREE (3)
flashes.

breaker.
• M anual disconnect switch
OFF, door switch open, or 24
volt wires improperly
connected or loose.
