Troubleshooting

A furnace is not a household appliance. It is complex and requires professional maintenance and repair. That’s why attempts at “do-it-yourself” repairs on an in-warranty unit may void the remainder of your warranty.

Other than performing the simple maintenance recommended in this manual, you should not attempt to make any adjustments to your furnace. Your dealer will be able to take care of any questions or problems you may have. A periodic inspection of your furnace should be made by a qualified service agency at the start of each heating season.

Trouble: No Heating – Blower Does not operate

Solutions:

  1. Thermostat set incorrectly. Adjust thermostat.
  2. Blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker. Replace or reset protective device or call for servicer.
  3. Defective component. Most controls are automatic and will recycle. If your unit still does not operate call for servicer.
  4. Burner does not ignite.
  5. Main gas line turned off. Have gas company check.
  6. Blower door removed or ajar. Close door securely to restore power
    to blower and gas valve.
  7. Lockout. Turn power on-off-on-off twice in 30 seconds.

Trouble: Insufficient Heating – Blower operates continuously.

Solutions:

  1. Dirty air filters. Clean or replace filters.
  2. Blocked supply or return registers. Make sure registers are open and No obstacles blocking off the air.

Trouble: No Heat – Vent motor is running

Solutions: Restricted or plugged furnace condensate drain.

  1. Remove drain clamps to condensate trap and drain pan outlet.
  2. Flush or clean drain blockage.
  3. Reinstall clamps.
