WARNING: The ability to properly perform mainte­nance on this equipment requires certain expertise, me­chanical skills, tools, and equipment. If you do not possess these, do not attempt to perform any maintenance on this equipment other than those procedures recom­mended in the User’s Manual. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THIS EQUIPMENT, SERIOUS PER­SONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
WARNING: Never store anything on, near, or in contact with the furnace, such as:
1. Spray or aerosol cans, rags, brooms, dust mops, vacuum cleaners, or other cleaning tools.
2. Soap powders, bleaches, waxes or other cleaning compounds, plastic or plastic containers, gasoline, kero­sene, cigarette lighter fluid, dry cleaning fluids, or other volatile fluids.
3. Paint thinners and other painting compounds, paper bags, or other paper products. A failure to follow this warning could result in corrosion of the heat exchanger, fire, personal injury, or death.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS
PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic
components. Take precautions during furnace installation and servicing to protect the furnace electronic control. Precautions will prevent electrostatic discharges from personnel and hand tools which are held during the procedure. These precautions will help to avoid exposing the control to electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control, and the person at the same electro­static potential.
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. DO NOT TOUCH
THE CONTROL OR ANY WIRE CONNECTED TO THE CONTROL PRIOR TO DISCHARGING YOUR BODY’S ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE TO GROUND.
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the furnace chassis which is close to the control. Tools held in a person’s hand during grounding will be satisfactorily discharged.
3. After touching the chassis you may proceed to service the control or connecting wires as long as you do nothing that recharges your body with static electricity (for example; DO NOT move or shuffle your feet, DO NOT touch un­grounded objects, etc.).
4. If you touch ungrounded objects (recharge your body with static electricity), firmly touch furnace again before touch­ing control or wires.
5. Use this procedure for installed and uninstalled (un­grounded) furnaces.
6. Before removing a new control from its container, dis­charge your body’s electrostatic charge to ground to protect the control from damage. If the control is to be installed in a furnace, follow items 1 through 5 before bringing the control or yourself into contact with the furnace. Put all used AND new controls into containers before touching ungrounded objects.
7. An ESD service kit (available from commercial sources) may also be used to prevent ESD damage.

D. Electrical Controls and Wiring
CAUTION: There may be more than 1 electrical supply
to the unit. Check accessories and cooling unit for additional electrical supplies.
The electrical ground and polarity for 115-v wiring must be maintained properly. Refer to Fig. 10 for field wiring information and to Fig. 12 for unit wiring information.
NOTE: If the polarity is not correct, the STATUS LED on the control center will flash rapidly and prevent the furnace from operating. The control system also requires an earth ground for proper operation of the control board and flame-sensing electrode.
The 24-v circuit contains an automotive-type, 3-amp fuse located on the control board. (See Fig. 11.) Any direct shorts of the 24-v wiring during installation, service, or maintenance will cause this fuse to blow. If fuse replacement is required, use ONLY a fuse of identical size.
With power to the unit disconnected, check all electrical connec­tions for tightness. Tighten all screws on electrical connections. If any smoky or burned connections are found, disassemble the connection, clean all parts, strip wire, and reassemble properly and securely.
Reconnect electrical power to the unit and observe unit through 1 complete operating cycle. Electrical controls are difficult to check without proper instrumentation; if there are any discrepancies in the operating cycle, contact your dealer and request service.
For an explanation of fault codes, refer to service label located on blower access door or Fig. 13, and the troubleshooting guide.
The control center stores 1 fault code (the last fault to occur) for a period of 48 hrs or until the 115- or 24-v power is interrupted.
NOTE: Removing blower access door will open blower access door switch and terminate 115-v power to control center, and fault code will be erased. Look into blower access door sight glass for current LED status.
1. To retrieve fault code, proceed with the following:
NOTE: NO thermostat signal may be present at control center, and all blower time delay off periods must be completed.
a. Leave 115-v power to furnace turned on. b. Look into blower access door sight glass for current
LED status.
NOTE: Leave blower access panel installed to maintain power to control center to view current LED status.
c. Remove control access door. d. BRIEFLY remove either wire from the main limit switch
until LED goes out, then reconnect it.
NOTE: If wire to main limit is disconnected longer than 4 sec, main blower starts, and retrieval request is ignored.
2. When above items have been completed, the following will occur:
a. LED flashes a fault code 4 times. Record this fault code
for further troubleshooting.
b. Inducer motor starts and continues to run the entire
component test.
c. Hot surface ignitor is energized for 15 sec, then de-
energized.
d. Main blower operates at cooling speed for 10 sec, then
turns off.
e. Main blower operates at heating speed for 10 sec, then
turns off.
f. Inducer motor stops. Items a through e above will assist in furnace troubleshoot-
ing since all components are functionally operated except the gas valve. This procedure is also referred to as "Com­ponent Test."
3. Operate furnace through 1 heat cycle to test for proper operation and check LED status.
4. If furnace is operating properly and LED indicates proper operation, replace control access door.
5. Component Test can also be initiated by performing the following:
a. Remove control access door. b. Remove blower access door. c. Manually close blower access door switch.
WARNING: Blower access door switch opens 115-v power to control center. No component operation can occur. Caution must be taken when manually closing this switch for service purposes. Failure to follow this warn­ing could result in personal injury or death.
d. BRIEFLY short (jumper) TEST, 1/4-in. quick-connect
terminal on control center (adjacent to LED diagnostic light), and Com terminal on thermostat connection block. (See Fig. 11.)
NOTE: If TEST to Com terminals are jumpered longer than 2 sec, LED will flash rapidly, and retrieval request will be ignored.
e. Component Test will function as described in item 2
above. f. Check LED status. g. If LED status indicates proper operation, release blower
access door switch, replace blower access door, and
replace control access door.
E. Troubleshooting
Refer to the service label. (See Fig. 13.) Pages 10 and 11 contain a troubleshooting guide. This guide can be a useful tool in isolating furnace operation problems. Beginning with the word "Start," answer each question and follow the appropriate arrow to the next item.
The guide will help to identify the problem or failed component. After replacing any component, verify correct operation sequence.
