Flame Rollout Switch Location
(90% Upflow Furnace Shown, Counterflow Similar)
The control is designed to open should a flame roll out oc-
cur. An over firing condition or flame impingement on the
heat shield may also cause the control to open. If the rollout
control opens, the air circulation blower will run continuously.
WARNING
L
INE VOLTAGE NOW PRESENT
1. Remove the burner compartment door to gain access to
the rollout switch(es) mounted to burner bracket.
2. Reset the manual rollout switch.
3. Remove wires from rollout switch.
4. Using an ohmmeter, check for coninuity across the swtch.
5. if the switch will not close afer manually resetting, it must
be replaced.
If a roll out switch has tripped, it is important to find out why.
Possible causes could be flame impingement, orifice plate
out of position, burners with excessive cross-over slot di-
mension, over-firing, improper orifices, improper gas pres-
sure, air leaking from around the heat exchanger into the
burner compartment, air leaking through the heat exchanger
itself.
6. After check and/or replacement of rollout switch, rein-
stall burner compartment door and verify proper unit op-
eration.

WARNING
1. Remove burner compartment door to gain access to the
induced draft blower motor.
2. Disconnect the motor wire leads from its connection
point at the induced draft motor.
3. Using a ohmmeter, test for continuity between each of
the motor leads.
4. Touch one probe of the ohmmeter to the motor frame
(ground) and the other probe in turn to each lead.
If the windings do not test continuous or a reading is
obtained to ground, replace the motor.
5. If the windings have a continuity reading, reconnect wires.
Turn power on to the furnace and turn the thermostat on
in the heating mode. Check voltage for 115V at the
induced draft motor terminals during the trial for ignition.
If you have 115V and the motor does not run, replace
the induced draft motor.
6. After completing check and/or replacement of induced
draft motor, reinstall burner compartment door.
7. Turn on electrical power and verify proper unit operation.
S-304 CHECKING GAS VALVE (REDUNDANT)
A combination redundant operator type gas valve which pro-
vides all manual and automatic control functions required for
gas fired heating equipment is used.
The valve provides control of main burner gas flow, pressure
regulation, and 100 percent safety shut-off.
Two stage gas valves always require 24 volts between com-
mon and low fire (main coil) to open. The furnace front cover
pressure switch is wired in series with the low (main) sole-
noid of the gas valve. In the event of a non-functioning gas
valve, always check the front cover pressure switch. Also
see section S-307 on Checking Gas Pressure and section
S-310 on Checking Pressure Switches.
