Possible Causes
Internal burner fault (ignition, flame, safety chain), Faulty burner control box, Miswired lockout feedback contact, Safety device in burner circuit tripped
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Follow burner manufacturer and Danstoker safety instructions. Isolate power and fuel before opening burner panels.
- Check burner control indicator: Look at the burner control box (e.g., Siemens, Weishaupt, etc.) for its own error code or lockout LED. Refer to its manual for specific cause.
- Reset burner: Press the burner reset button once. Observe the startup sequence and note at which stage it fails.
- Inspect safety chain: Verify that all safety devices in the burner circuit (limit thermostats, pressure switches, gas valves) are in normal position and not tripped.
- Check lockout feedback wiring: Ensure the burner lockout relay contact is correctly wired to the Danstoker controller input and not stuck.
If E16 recurs, a burner specialist must diagnose the burner control and safety chain.
