I. CHECK PRIMARY LIMIT CONTROL
This control shuts off gas control system and energizes air-
circulating blower motor if furnace overheats. Recommended
method of checking this limit control is to gradually block off
return air after furnace has been operating for a period of at least
5 minutes. As soon as limit control has shut off burners, return-air
opening should be unblocked to permit normal air circulation. By
using this method to check limit control, it can be established that
limit is functioning properly and operates if there is a restricted
return-air duct or motor failure. If limit control does not function
during this test, cause must be determined and corrected.
II. CHECK PRESSURE SWITCH
This control proves operation of draft inducer. Check switch
operation as follows:
1. Turn off 115-v power to furnace.
2. Remove main furnace door and disconnect inducer motor
lead wires from wire harness.
3. Turn on 115-v power to furnace.
4. Set thermostat to call for heat and wait 1 minute. When
pressure switch is functioning properly, hot surface igniter
should NOT glow, and control status code LED flashes a
Status Code 31. If hot surface igniter glows when inducer
motor is disconnected, shut furnace down immediately.
Determine reason pressure switch did not function properly
and correct condition.
5. Turn off 115-v power to furnace.
6. Reconnect inducer motor leads, reinstall main furnace door,
and turn on 115-v power supply.
