Capillary Tube Limit Switch
Your Lennox furnace is equipped with a manuallyĆreset
capillary tube limit switch which shuts off the gas supply to
the furnace in the event of inadequate supply air (high air
temperature). It is located on the vestibule panel near the
gas valve. To reset this control, push the switch on the
face of the control sideways. If this switch opens again,
consult a qualified gas service engineer.
Control Board Lockouts
Several types of control board lockout modes exist on this
furnace. When in one of these modes, the control board
will not allow the furnace to start. The two modes that can
be manually reset are: a Watchguard lockout mode," and
a Hard lockout mode."
To reset the Watchguard mode," manually switch the therĆ
mostat from HEAT to OFF and then back to HEAT again.
(Note - This lockout mode will also automatically reset after
a 60 minute lockout period.)
The Hard lockout mode" can be reset by turning the elecĆ
trical power OFF and then back ON again.
If either of these two lockouts reoccur, or if the original lockĆ
out cannot be reset, call a qualified gas service engineer.
