H-SERIES HEATER DIAGNOSTIC GUIDE
CODE FAU LT DIAGNOSIS STEP REMEDY
BO Bypass Operation
1. Check state of #2 dip
switch on back of control
module.
This is a normal display when heater is being controlled by a remote ther-
mostat. No service is required. If heater is not being controlled by remote
thermostat, change setting of #2 dip switch to “Off” position.
IF Ignition Failure
1. Ensure gas supply shutoff
valves are open.
Ensure that main gas shutoff installed adjacent to heater is open. Ensure
that knob on gas valve inside unit is in “On” position. If OK, proceed to
step 2.
2. Check for low gas supply
pressure.
Ensure inlet gas supply pressure exceeds minimum value indicated on
rating plate. If OK, proceed to step 3.
3. Check for faulty igniter wir-
ing or connection.
Inspect igniter wiring. Ensure igniter plug is securely plugged into back of
control module. If OK, proceed to step 4.
4. Check for faulty gas valve
wiring or connection.
Inspect gas valve wiring. Ensure wire harness terminals are securely
fastened to spade terminals on gas valve. If OK, proceed to step 5.
5. Check for gas valve failure
or gas valve relay failure.
1. Measure voltage across gas valve during trial for ignition. If 24 vac is
present and gas valve does not open, gas valve is defective. Replace
gas valve.
2. If 24 vac is not present, gas valve relay on control module is defective.
Replace control module.
SF
Temperature Sensor
Input Failure
1. Check for faulty wiring or
connection.
Inspect sensor wiring. Ensure sensor is plugged into back of control
module. If OK, proceed to step 2.
2. Sensor is defective. Replace temperature sensor.
HS
Maximum Return
Water Temperature
Exceeded
1. Pool water temperature
exceeds 104ºF.
Verify set point setting of remote thermostat is at or below 104ºF. If set
point setting of remote thermostat is OK, or if heater is not congured for
remote thermostat proceed to step 2.
2. Verify that water ow is
adequate.
Verify that water ow rate to heater is above minimum required.
HF Flame Sense Fault 1. Flame sense failure. Replace igniter.
