Part 10 - Troubleshooting
A. Error Code
When the appliance encounters an error, the display will ash “Er” followed by a numerical code. The appliance shall enter a soft lockout
condition if the error is such that it can return to normal operation once the condition relieves itself (overheat conditions, NTC open or shorts,
etc.). The appliance shall enter a hard lockout if the condition indicates something more serious (ame, ignition, condensate line, etc.) To clear
a hard lockout Error Code, press the Power button. See Figure 49.
The following screen will display when the appliance encounters an error.

Possible Remedies
Er:10
Flame has extin-
guished 5 (ve) times
Press the Power button to clear the Error Code. The Code will also automatically reset after one hour (up to three
(3) times.
If Error happens again:
1. Monitor the gas pressure to the appliance while in operation. Ensure pressure is between 3.5 and 14” WC.
2. Check gas valve wire. Ensure connection is secure.
3. Check ame detection sensor. Ensure connections are secure. Normal operating settings are more than 2.5DC
before ignition, less than 2.5DC after ignition.
4. Check vent terminations. Ensure there are no blockages.
5. Assure that the ame is stable when lit.
6. If the problem persists, replace the main control.
Er:11
Ignition has failed 5
(ve) times
Press the Power button to clear the Error Code. The Code will also automatically reset after one hour (up to three
(3) times.
If Error happens again:
1. Monitor the gas pressure to the appliance while in operation. Ensure pressure is between 3.5 and 14” WC.
2. Check gas valve wire. Ensure connection is secure.
3. Check ame detection sensor. Ensure connections are secure. Normal operating settings are more than 2.5DC
before ignition, less than 2.5DC after ignition.
4. Check igniter transformer for proper connection.
5. Clean the spark igniter with steel wool to remove oxides. Ensure proper separation (3-4 mm).
6. Replace the spark igniter if damaged.
7. Assure that the ame is stable when lit.
8. If the problem persists, replace the main control.

C)
This Error Code will go away when the DHW temperature decreases.
If Error happens again:
1. Check if dip switch High Fire setting is ON. Switches 6 and 7 should be OFF for normal operation.
2. Check if DHW inlet pipe is blocked. Ensure there is enough water owing to the appliance.
3. Check DHW sensor at DHW outlet. If resistance is zero, replace the sensor.
4. Check Operating Temperature sensor at the heat exchanger. If resistance is zero, replace the sensor.
5. If the problem persists, replace the main control.
NOTE: During the error state, the pump will operate to cool the appliance until the temperature is below 192

Er:20
Condensate - Closed is
Normal, Open is Fault
(Condensate Drain
Trap
Press the Power button to clear the Error Code.
1. Check Condensate and main controller connections. Ensure all are secure.
2. Check Condensate resistance. If resistance is not zero, replace the switch.
3. Check Condensate hose. Ensure it is connected and in good condition.
4. Check condensate line and termination for blockages.
5. Check exhaust vent for blockages.
6. If the problem persists, replace the main control.
Er:28
Overheat Sensor Open
or Short
This Error Code will go away when CH temperature decreases.
If Error happens again:
1. Check overheat temperature sensor. Ensure connections are secure.
2. Check overheat sensor resistance. If resistance is zero, replace the sensor.
3. If the problem persists, replace the main control.
Er:29
APS - Closed is Normal,
Open is Fault
Press the Power button to clear the Error Code.
1. Check APS and main controller connections. Ensure all are secure.
2. Check APS resistance. If resistance is not zero, replace the switch.
3. Check APS hose. Ensure it is connected and in good condition.
4. Check condensate line and termination for blockages.
5. Check exhaust vent for blockages.
6. If the problem persists, replace the main control.
