Error Code 3
Error code 3 is a thermopile related fault and is indicated by three 0.5 second flashes
separated by a 30 second off period between each series of flashes. If this fault occurs
check the following:
1. Disconnect power and ensure all thermopile spade connectors are pushed on firmly
and are making contact. Check blocked flue switch to ensure it is not open circuit.
Restore power. If error code 3 is still displayed move on to step 2.
2. Disconnect power and switch the front two thermopile wires with the back two
thermopile wires ensuring that the white leads are connected to the spade terminal
with the „white dot‟ next to it (refer to wiring diagram on page 6). Restore power; if
error code 3 is still displayed replace both thermopiles.
Note: This procedure can be performed by following fault finding chart 2.1 on page
23.
Error Code 8
Error code 8 is a gas valve related fault and is indicated by eight 0.5 second flashes
separated by a 30 second off period between each series of flashes. If this fault occurs
check the following:
1. Ensure the gas valve receiving antenna is firmly connected, hanging in free air and
is not touching any metal (earth).
2. Confirm that the gas valve is not in REMOTE mode. If the gas valve is in remote
mode and is indicating error code 8 the gas valve is defective and will need to be
replaced. If the gas valve is in LOCAL mode and is indicating error code 8 go to
step 3.
3. Switch the gas valve local/remote switch to REMOTE and re-teach the valve the
remote control signal (refer to „Recognition Signal‟ on page 12). The error code
should clear itself after approximately 1 ½ minutes and then return to normal
operation; if error code 8 is still displayed replace the gas valve.
Note: This procedure can be performed by following fault finding chart 2.1 on page
