occurs the variable speed furnace control shuts unit down, turns the inducer off, and gas remains off.
• LOW HEAT PREPURGE - If the high heat pressure switch HPS makes and the low heat pressure switch LPS is still open the variable speed
furnace control starts flashing status code 43, shuts unit down, and waits 2 minutes before restarting the heating cycle.
• HIGH HEAT PREPURGE - If the high heat pressure switch HPS makes and the low heat pressure switch LPS is still open the variable speed
furnace control starts flashing status code 43, shuts unit down, and waits 2 minutes before restarting the heating cycle.
