Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before working on low-voltage wiring to avoid shorting the transformer.
Steps to check:
- Check 24V fuse: Inspect and replace the low-voltage fuse on the Daikin board if blown, using the same rating.
- Float switch: If a condensate float switch is wired in series with R, ensure the condensate pan is not full and the switch is not tripped.
- Thermostat test: At the furnace board, temporarily jumper R to W to simulate a heat call. If the furnace starts, the thermostat or thermostat wiring is likely faulty.
Replace the thermostat or repair wiring as needed. If jumping R to W does not start the furnace, the issue is within the Daikin furnace controls and requires professional diagnosis.
