TROUBLESHOOTING

TABLE 8-1. BOILER TROUBLESHOOTING – Continued

FAULT INDICATION

PROBABLE CAUSES

CORRECTIVE ACTION

AIRFLOW FAULT

DURING PURGE

1. Blower not running or running too slow


2. Defective Air Flow Switch

3. Blocked Air flow Switch

4. Blocked Blower inlet or inlet ductwork.


5. No voltage to switch from control box.


6.

PROBABLE CAUSES

from 3 to 17

for AIRFLOW FAULT DURING
IGNITION
applies for this fault

1. Start the unit. If the blower does not run check the blower solid

state relay for input and output voltage. If the relay is okay,
check the blower.

2. Start the unit. If the blower runs, check the airflow switch for

continuity. Replace the switch if there is no continuity.

3. Remove the air flow switch and inspect for signs of blockage,

clean or replace as necessary.

4. Inspect the inlet to the combustion blower including any

ductwork leading up to the combustion blower for signs of
blockage.

5. Measure for 24 VAC during start sequence from each side of

the switch to ground. If 24VAC is not present refer to qualified
service personnel.

6. See CORR

ECTIVE ACTION

from 3 to 17 for AIRFLOW

FAULT DURING IGNITION

AIRFLOW FAULT

DURING RUN

1. Blower stopped running due to thermal

or current overload

2. Blocked Blower inlet or inlet ductwork

3. Blocked air flow switch.

4. Defective air flow switch.

5. Combustion oscillations.

6. PROBABLE CAUSES from 3 to 12 for

AIRFLOW FAULT DURING IGNITION
apply for this fault

7. Unit set for propane operation, but Max

Valve Position was not changed to 70%.

1. Check combustion blower for signs of excessive heat or high

current draw that may trip thermal or current overload devices.

2. Inspect the inlet to the combustion blower including any

ductwork leading up to the combustion blower for signs of
blockage.

3. Remove the air flow switch and inspect for signs of blockage,

clean or replace as necessary.

4. Measure the resistance of the switch for continuity with the

blower running. If there is an erratic resistance reading or the
resistance reading is greater than zero ohms, replace the
switch.

5. Run unit to full fire f the unit rumbles or runs rough, perform the

combustion calibration procedures in Chapter 4.

6. PROBABLE CAUSES from 3 to 12 for AIRFLOW FAULT

DURING IGNITION apply for this fault.

7. Check Max Valve Position setting in Configuration Menu.
