No flame detected –
Heater will make three (3)
attempts at ignition before

the control goes into this
lockout condition. Will
reset in one (1) hour.
Loss of flame signal – The

False flame signal – The
heater will lock out if it
senses a flame signal

NOTE: If you replace a part to remedy a fault, it is recommended that you cycle the unit at least three or four times
to assure the fault has been resolved.

2. If unit did reset successfully, let the heater run and go into the status menu to check the upper and lower
temperature sensor. If either reading displayed does not make sense, check appropriate sensor with
ohmmeter. (Refer to resistance chart, this section.) Replace bad sensor. Do an OHMs reading on both sensors
to check continuity.
1. Inspect all flue piping. If the flue is damaged or shows signs of overheating, repair or replace the flue parts
as necessary before proceeding.
2. If the flue piping system is intact, not damaged and there is no sign of the flue overheating (such as
discoloration or melting), push the red reset button on the flue switch
3. Be sure the heater is connected to a water supply and full of water.
4. Push the RESET button on the heater control panel. The water heater should light. If the water heater lights,
proceed to step 5. If the water heater does not light and the display again begins to flash F01, inspect the
wiring to the flue switch, repairing or replacing as necessary. If the wiring is intact, replace the flue switch, using
care to mount the new flue switch in the same position and mounting holes as the old one. If the display flashes
a code other than F01, follow the troubleshooting guide for that code.
5. Observe operation for five (5) minutes. Place the probe of an exhaust analyzer into the flue system within six
(6) feet (1.8 m) of the heater. The exhaust temperature should not rise above 190
minutes of operation.
6. If the flue temperature is below 190
the flue switch, using care to mount the new flue switch in the same position and mounting holes as the old
one. If the display flashes a code other than F01, follow the troubleshooting guide for that code.
7. If the flue temperature increases to over 190
1. Check the electrical connection to the appropriate temperature sensor.
2. If connection is okay, replace bad sensor.

2. If wiring is okay, check appropriate sensor with ohmmeter and compare to reading in resistance chart above.
If reading does not agree with water temperature, replace bad sensor.

1. Watch the igniter through the observation window provided.
2. If there is no spark, check the spark electrode for the proper ¼" (6.3 mm) gap.
3. Remove any corrosion from the spark electrode and flame rectifier probe.
4. If there is a spark but no flame, check the gas supply to the heater.
5. If there is a flame, check the flame sensor.
6. Check any flue blockage or condensate blocks.
1. Monitor the gas pressure to the unit while in operation.
2. Assure that the flame is stable when lit.
3. Check to see if the green light on the display module is out while the heater is running.
4. If the green light doesn't come on or goes off during operation check the flame signal on the status menu.
5. If the signal reads less than 1 microampere, clean the flame rectifier probe.
6. If the flame rectifier probe continues to read low, replace it.
1. Turn the gas off to the unit at the service valve.
2. If the flame signal is still present replace the igniter.
3. If the flame signal is not present after turning off the gas supply, check the gas valve electrical connection.
4. If there is no power to the gas valve, remove the valve and check for obstruction in the valve seat or replace
the gas valve.
5. Turn the gas on at the service valve after corrective action is taken.
1. Check the combustion air fan wiring.
2. Replace the combustion air fan.
3. Replace the control board.
