Carrier 58MVP Burner User Manual


 
Gas valve switch or knob MUST be facing forward or tilted
upward. Failure to follow this warning could result in
property damage, personal injury, or death.
16. Replace burner box cover.
17. Turn on gas and electrical supplies to furnace.
18. Check for gas leaks.
Never use matches, candles, flame, or other sources of
ignition to check for gas leakage. Use a soap-and-water
solution. Failure to follow this warning could result in a fire,
personal injury, or death.
19. Replace main furnace door.
Step 4—Cleaning Heat Exchangers
The following items should be performed by a qualified service
technician.
PRIMARY HEAT EXCHANGERS
If the heat exchangers get an accumulation of light dirt or dust on
the inside, they may be cleaned by the following procedure:
NOTE: If the heat exchangers get a heavy accumulation of soot
and carbon, both the primary and secondary heat exchangers
should be replaced rather than trying to clean them thoroughly due
to their intricate design. A build-up of soot and carbon indicates
that a problem exists which needs to be corrected, such as
improper adjustment of manifold pressure, insufficient or poor
quality combustion air, improper vent termination, incorrect size
or damaged manifold orifice(s), improper gas, or a restricted heat
exchanger (primary or secondary). Action must be taken to correct
the problem.
1. Turn off gas and electrical supplies to furnace.
2. Remove main furnace door.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing con-
trols. Wiring errors can cause improper and hazardous opera-
tion.
3. Disconnect wires or connectors to rollout switch, gas valve,
ignitor, and flame sensor.
4. Disconnect combustion-air intake pipe from intake housing.
5. Remove the pressure switch tube from intake housing.
6. Remove screws attaching intake housing to burner box, and
rotate intake housing away from burner box for removal.
7. Using backup wrench, disconnect gas supply pipe from gas
valve.
8. Disconnect pressure tubing from gas valve.
9. Remove 2 screws attaching top filler panel and rotate upwards
to gain access to screws attaching burner box to cell panel.
10. Remove screws attaching burner box to cell panel. (See Fig.
5.)
NOTE: Burner box cover, manifold, gas valve, and burner
assembly should be removed as 1 assembly.
11. Clean heat exchanger openings with a vacuum and a soft
brush. (See Fig. 6.)
NOTE: After cleaning, inspect the heat exchangers to ensure they
are free of all foreign objects that may restrict flow of combustion
products.
12. Reverse items 4 through 10 for reassembly.
The ground wire from the gas valve MUST be attached to the
burner box attachment screw. Failure to attach this ground
wire to an adequate casing ground will cause the furnace
control to lock out.
NOTE: Be sure burner box gasket is installed between burner box
and cell panel. If gasket is damaged, replace it.
NOTE: Inspect combustion-air intake housing. If foamed gasket
was removed, check for any damage. If gasket is damaged in any
way, it must be repaired. To repair, remove damaged gasket
section, apply sealant releasing agent such as PAM cooking spray
or equivalent (must not contain corn or canola oil, aromatic or
halogenated hydrocarbons or inadequate seal may occur) to burner
box and apply a small bead of G.E. RTV 162, G.E. RTV 6702, or
Dow-Corning RTV 738 sealant to edge of combustion-air intake
housing. (See Fig. 7.)
13. Refer to furnace wiring diagram and reconnect wires to rollout
switch, gas valve, ignitor, and flame sensor.
14. Reconnect pressure switch tubes to gas valve and intake
housing. Refer to tube routing label on main furnace door for
proper tube location. (See Fig. 8.) Be sure tubes are not
kinked.
15. Turn on gas and electrical supplies to furnace.
