Table 17 — LED Error Code Service Analysis

PROBLEM

CAUSE

REMEDY

Hardware failure.
(LED OFF)

Loss of power to control module (IGC).

Check 5-amp fuse on IGC, power to unit, 24-v circuit
breaker, and transformer. Units without a 24-v circuit
breaker have an internal overload in the 24-v trans-
former. If the overload trips, allow 10 minutes for auto-
matic reset.

Limit switch fault.
(LED 2 flashes)

High temperature limit switch is open.

Check the operation of the indoor (evaporator) fan mo-
tor. Ensure that the supply-air temperature rise is in ac-
cordance with the range on the unit nameplate.

Flame sense fault.
(LED 3 flashes)

The IGC sensed flame that should not be present.

Reset unit. If problem persists, replace control board.

4 consecutive limit
switch trips.
(LED 4 flashes)

Inadequate airflow to unit.

Check operation of indoor (evaporator) fan motor and
that supply-air temperature rise agrees with range on
unit nameplate information.

Ignition lockout.
(LED 5 flashes)

Unit unsuccessfully attempted ignition for 15 minutes.

Check ignitor and flame sensor electrode spacing, gaps,
etc. Ensure that flame sense and ignition wires are prop-
erly terminated. Verify that unit is obtaining proper
amount of gas.

Induced-draft motor
fault.
(LED 6 flashes)

IGC does not sense that induced-draft motor is
operating.

Check for proper voltage. If motor is operating, check
the speed sensor plug/IGC Terminal J2 connection.
Proper connection: PIN 1 — White, PIN 2 — Red, PIN 3
— Black.

Rollout switch fault.
(LED 7 flashes)

Rollout switch has opened.

Rollout switch will automatically reset, but IGC will con-
tinue to lock out unit. Check gas valve operation. Ensure
that induced-draft blower wheel is properly secured to
motor shaft. Reset unit at unit disconnect.

Internal control fault.
(LED 8 flashes)

Microprocessor has sensed an error in the software or
hardware.

If error code is not cleared by resetting unit power, re-
place the IGC.

LEGEND

IGC

Integrated Gas Unit Controller

LED — Light-Emitting Diode

If the IGC must be replaced, be sure to ground yourself to dis-
sipate any electrical charge that may be present before han-
dling new control board. The IGC is sensitive to static electricity
and may be damaged if the necessary precautions are not taken.

IMPORTANT: Refer to Table 21 — Heating Service Troubleshoot-
ing for additional troubleshooting information.
