Safety Considerations
Only trained personnel should install or service heating equipment. When working with heating
equipment, be sure to read and understand all precautions in the documentation, on labels, and on
tags that accompany the equipment. Failure to follow all safety guidelines may result in damage to
equipment, severe personal injury or death.
Introduction
The ICM291 DSI gas ignition control replaces the following Carrier model: LH33WP003A. The
ICM291 has incorporated LED diagnostics to assist in troubleshooting. Fault code information can be
found in this application guide. Please keep this application guide with the furnace installation manual
for future reference.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
CAUTION!
Use caution when installing and servicing the furnace to avoid and control electrostatic discharge;
ESD can impact electronic components. These precautions must be followed to prevent
electrostatic discharge from hand tools and personnel. Following the precautions will protect the
control from ESD by discharging static electricity buildup to ground.
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Do not touch the control or the wiring prior to discharging your
body's electrostatic charge to ground.
2. To ground yourself, touch your hand and tools to a clean, metal (unpainted) furnace surface near
the control board.
3. Service the furnace after touching the chassis. Your body will recharge with static electricity as you
shuffle your feet or move around, and you must reground yourself.
4. Reground yourself if you touch ungrounded items.
5. Before handling a new control, reground yourself; this will protect the control. Store used and new
controls in separate containers before touching ungrounded objects.
6. ESD damage can also be prevented by using an ESD service kit.
Remove Existing Control
CAUTION!
To service control, and prior to disconnection, label all wires. Failure to do so may result in wiring
errors that can cause dangerous operation.
1. Turn thermostat to OFF position or set it to the lowest possible setting.
2. Turn OFF electrical supply to furnace.
3. Turn OFF gas supply to furnace.
CAUTION: Failure to turn off gas and electric supplies can result in explosion, fire, death, or
personal injury.
4. Remove furnace blower and control access doors.
5. Disconnect thermostat wires and humidifier wires (if equipped with a humidifier).
6. Disconnect line voltage, blower, electronic air cleaner wires (if equipped), and transformer wires.
7. Remove screws and any other fasteners, and the old circuit board.
8. Examine control and control box to check for water stains.
9. Make repairs if any sources of water leakage are found. Be sure to check humidifiers, evaporator
coils, and vent systems in the area of the control.
Install New Control
1. Ground yourself. When handling circuit board, hold it by the edges.
2. Fasten circuit board with retaining screws.
3. Connect all line voltage, low voltage, and accessory wires.
4. Verify the sequence of operation.
Sequence of Operation
A W call from the T'stat will engage the combustion motor. Ignition sequence begins, gas valve and
spark are engaged, providing that system safety switches (RS, LS, and CS) are closed and there is
feedback from the combustion motor Hall Effect sensor. The blower and indoor motors will engage 45
seconds after flame is established and sensed. They disengage 45 seconds after W call is satisfied.
A G call from the T'stat will engage blower and indoor motors right away. They disengage 25 seconds
after G call is removed.

• Combustion motor Hall Effect sensor
• Post-purge: 45 seconds
• Flame Sensing
Troubleshooting Tips
Flame not established
1. If flame is not established during the 5+2 initial sequence then the control will start the next trial for
ignition in 20 seconds.
2. The attempt to ignite will continue for 15 minutes before the respective fault code is triggered and
ignition trials are stopped.
3. The gas valve is energized only during the ignition sequence of 5+2 seconds.
4. Blower and indoor fan motors are off until flame is established and 45 seconds later.
Flame out
1. Flame out is considered when flame is lost during heating.
2. When W signal is present and flame is sensed out then the spark will start right away.
3. If flame is not established on the immediate sequence (2 above) then the control will continue
attempts every 20 seconds for 15 minutes before the respective fault code is triggered and ignition
trials are stopped.
4. Blower and indoor fan motors will continue running during flame out scenario for 15 minutes + 45
seconds.
5. Combustion motor remains on throughout the flame out scenario.
Flame out of sequence
1. Flame out of sequence represents a scenario when flame is sensed while W signal is not present.
2. Combustion, blower and indoor fan motors will be engaged (if not already running) right away and
keep running for as long as the fault condition is present.
3. The unit is operable but will display the fault code constantly until replaced by another fault code or
power reset.
No signal from the Hall affect sensor
1. On a W call, if the input from the Hall affect sensor (RA0) is not present for more than a minute,
then the combustion motor will continue running endlessly and the respective fault is flashed.
2. During running state if the input from the Hall affect sensor is not sensed then the gas valve will
shut off right away, blower and indoor fan motors will continue running for 30 seconds and then
turn off, combustion motor runs continuously.
