Possible Causes

Blown 3–5A fuse on control board, Shorted thermostat wire to ground, Shorted humidifier or accessory connected to R/C, Miswired outdoor unit low-voltage circuit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before replacing fuses or handling low-voltage wiring.

Steps to check:

  • Inspect and replace fuse: Locate the automotive-style fuse on the Coleman control board. If blown, replace with the same amperage rating.
  • Isolate circuits: Before restoring power, disconnect thermostat wires from the board (R, W, Y, G, C). Restore power. If the fuse holds, reconnect one wire at a time until the fuse blows again. The last wire connected indicates the shorted circuit.
  • Inspect wiring run: Follow the suspect wire from furnace to thermostat or outdoor unit. Look for insulation damaged by staples, metal edges, or rodents. Repair or replace as needed.
  • Check accessories: If a humidifier, air cleaner, or outdoor unit is powered from R/C, disconnect it and test again. Faulty accessories can short the low-voltage circuit.

Do not install a larger fuse than specified; this can damage the control board and transformer.
