XIV. Troubleshooting
The following pages contain information for use in diagnosing control problems. When using this information the following
should be kept in mind:
1) This information is only meant to be used by a professional heating technician as an aid in diagnosing boiler
problems.
2) Where applicable, follow all precautions outlined in the Section XI (Start-up and Checkout).
3) All controls on the boiler are tested at least once in the manufacturing process and a defective control or
component is generally the least likely cause. Before replacing a component, try to rule out all other possible causes.
A. Using the Display to Troubleshoot
The display communicates problems in one of three ways, depending upon the nature of the problem:
Hold–Aconditionexiststhat,whencleared,willallowburnertoautomaticallyre.Thisissimilartowhatissometimescalleda
“soft lockout”, except that Holds also occur during normal operation (for example while the control is waiting for the fan to come
up to the pre-purge speed). When a Hold is present, “Hold” is shown on the home screen as shown in Figure 14.0. If the Hold
persists,thehomescreenwillalternatelyashtheoutlettemperatureandtheHoldCodeasshowninFigure14.1.Alistofthese
codes, and their meanings, are shown in Table 14.4.

“Lockout”isshownonthehomescreenasshowninFigure14.2andthehomescreenwillalternatelyashtheoutlettemperature
and the Lockout Code as shown. A list of these codes, and their meanings, are shown in Table 14.4. Codes used for Holds and
Lockouts are the same and in some cases a hold condition that lasts long enough will become a Lockout. Lockouts can be cleared
by either pressing the LH button as shown in Figure 14.3, or pressing the reset button on the control itself. The most recent
Lockout can be seen, and cleared, on the “Lockout screen” shown in Figure 12.7 (interrupting power to the boiler also clears this
history).
