I-UNIT COMPONENTS
EL296DFE unit components are shown in gure 1. The
gas valve, combustion air inducer and burners can be ac-
cessed by removing the access panel. Electrical compo-
nents are in the control box (gure 2) found in the blower
section.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
Precautions and Procedures
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge can aect
electronic components. Take precautions
to neutralize electrostatic charge by
touching your hand and tools to metal
prior to handling the control.
A- Control Box
1. Control Transformer (T1)
A transformer located in the control box provides power
to the low voltage section of the unit. Transformers on all
models are rated 40VA with a 120V primary and a 24V
secondary.
2. Door Interlock Switch (S51)
A door interlock switch is wired in series with line voltage.
When the inner blower access panel is removed the unit
will shut down.

3. Circuit Breaker (CB8)
A 24V circuit breaker is also located in the control box. The
switch provides overcurrent protection to the transformer
(T1). The breaker can be manually reset by pressing the
button on the face. See gure 3.

WARNING
Shock hazard.
Disconnect power before servicing. Integrated
control is not eld repairable. If control is inoperable,
simply replace entire control.
Can cause injury or death. Unsafe operation will
result if repair is attempted.
4. Integrated Control (A92)
Units are equipped with the SureLight
®
two-stage, inte-
grated control. The system consists of a ignition / blower
control (gures 4 and 5) with control pin designations in ta-
bles 1 and 2 and ignitor (gure 14). The control and ignitor
work in combination to ensure furnace ignition and ignitor
durability. The control provides gas ignition, safety checks
and indoor blower control with two-stage gas heating.
The furnace combustion air inducer, gas valve and indoor
blower are controlled in response to various system inputs
such as thermostat signal, pressure and limit switch signal
and ame signal. The control features a seven-segment
LED display, indicating furnace status and error codes.
The LED ashes in single digits. For example using ta-
ble 4 under LIMIT CODE, an “E” followed by “2” followed
by “5” followed by “0”, the limit switch circuit is open. The
control also has two unpowered (dry) 1/4” contacts for a
humidier and a 120 volt accessory terminal. Both rated
at (1) one amp each.
Electronic Ignition
At the beginning of the heat cycle the integrated con-
trol monitors the rst stage and second stage combus-
tion air inducer pressure switch. The control will not be-
gin the heating cycle if the rst stage pressure switch is
closed(bypassed). Likewise the integrated control will not
begin the second stage heating cycle if the second stage
pressure switch is closed, and will remain in rst stage
heat. However, if the second stage pressure switch closes
during the rst stage heat pre-purge, the control will allow
second stage heat. Once the rst stage pressure switch
is determined to be open, the combustion air inducer is
energized on low (rst stage) heat speed. When the dier-
ential in the pressure switch is great enough, the pressure
switch closes and a 15-second pre-purge begins
