2-STAGE COMMUNICATING INTEGRATED
FURNACE CONTROL (IFC)
DIAGNOSTIC CHART
Be sure to note dip switch settings before troubleshooting.
1) For communicating systems, Remove communications
connections from the T-stat (E1, E2) and use a jumper wire
between W1 & R also between R & W2 to set high stage gas
heat. For legacy systems ensure W2 & W1 are properly
connected and make sure both are energized w/ 240 AC after
the heat call is placed.
2) Set FAN switch to "AUTO" on T-stat.
3) Set thermostat to call for heat (set temp. differential to greater
than 10°F). (Comm. jumper W1 to R and W2 to R)
4) "H" should be displayed at "SSD's" and should be on steady, if
flashing check dip switches (Item "1").
Does the IDM Start on Low Speed?
IS
"A capital H is displayed at IFC SSD'S" ?
(pre-purge) IDM runs for 30 sec. at low speed?
Spark Electrodes (SE) Energize?
ECM BLOWER "ON" DELAY
Does ECM blower start on high heat
speed 15-20 seconds after burners light?
Remove the 2nd stage heat call while low heat call
remains. Ensure 24 VAC to W1 & 0 VAC to W2
After Blower on delay, Does IDM switch to low speed
and remain at low speed after switching?
124
Does I. B. M. energize at low speed?
Does furnace continue to operate at low
Dual SSD'S "ON" ?
Is thermostat heat call present?
For 24 VAC (Non-Comm. T-stat., is 24 VAC on W1 and/or W2 of
IFC. H or h should be displayed at SSD'S. ?
Is a fault code displayed at IFC?
(After 10 Sec. a fault code will display anyway)
For 1st 10 Sec. only
-Check line voltage at I.D.M.
-Check Wires And connections between I.D.M. and I.F.C.
-Ensure line voltage between P3, Pin 2 & P3, Pin 3 of I.F.C. (High IND Output).
-Check I.D.M. Capacitor.
Lower case "h"
Check t-stat, replace if
necessary.
Check W2 & connections,
replace or repair as
necessary
Does IDM Run for 60 Sec. and then off
for five minutes with fault
45, 46 or 57 displayed?

I
- Check all connections between I.F.C. & E.C.M. Motor.
- Check 24v to E.C.M. control (4pin connector, pin 1-4)
- Check Dip switch setting.
- Check P.F.C. choke. (if present)
- Check all wiring and connections to P.F.C choke.
- Check fault code display, see "fault codes" in I & O. (if present)
- Check line voltage to motor (115VAC).
Note: IFC SSD's will display "22 or 33".
CHECK:
AIRFLOW - ensure no restrictions, such as dirty filter, blower wheel,
dampers or closed registers, Etc. exist.
LIMITS - ensure good wire and connections between I.F.C. and all limits.
makes sure limits are not open when circulating air temperature is within a
specific range.
ROLLOUTS - Ensure rollouts or overtemperature limits do not need to be
reset. make sure no flame rollout in burner compartment due to blocked flue
or heat exchanger or combustion restriction.
OVERFIRE - ensure furnace is not overfired (temp rise is above stated
range). Check gas valve, proper orifice size, gas presure
Check to make sure test mode dip switches are properly set.
Ensure T-stat not
switching to high fire or
test mode not timing out

- See FAULT CODES under "Troubleshooting" in
I&O Manual.
See I&O.
Does gas valve remain
energized?
Note: If good flame is not sensed a fault code
"11" or "13" will be displayed at SSD's
Note: "12" is low flame sense, furnace should
still operate well.
CHECK:
-Grounding on I.F.C. in place and continuity between screw and field
-installed ground.
-Flame sense rod clean (clean if nessessary).
-Wire continunity between flame sense rod and Pin P2-7 on I.F.C.
-Flame carries across all burners, and all burners stay lit.
CHECK:
- Fault codes at IFC SSD - see FAULT CODES under troubleshooting
in I&O manual.
- 24V Between IFC pins P2-5 & P2-4 of I.F.C.
- Make sure heat call present at T-stat.
- T-stat wires and connections
- Check wire and all connections between I.F.C.and I.D.M
- Check for 115 VAC on P3-1 & P3-3.
- Check I.D.M. capacitor.
- Check I.D.M. low speed. Replace if neccessary.
- Check all connections between IFC and ECM motor.
- Check 24V to ECM Motor. (low voltage connector, pins 1 & 4)
- Check P.F.C. Choke.
- Check all wiring and connections to P.F.C. choke.
- Check fault code display and see "fault codes" In I & O.
