11
Furnace does not start; no inducer motor, no ignitor glow, no blower. LED flashes code 11 (no previous code stored).
Control Board Power-Up / No Fault Stored
12
Furnace attempts to start but stops; LED shows code 12 (blower on after power up). Blower may run briefly after power is restored.
Blower On After Power-Up / Normal Post-Power Cycle
13
Furnace shuts down and LED flashes code 13 (limit switch lockout). Blower may run continuously; burners will not light.
High Limit Switch Lockout
14
Furnace attempts ignition but locks out after several tries; LED shows code 14 (ignition lockout). Inducer runs, ignitor glows, but burners fail to stay lit.
Ignition Lockout / Failed Flame Establishment
21
Furnace LED flashes code 21; inducer may start but burners do not light. Often indicates gas heating lockout or gas valve fault.
Gas Heating Lockout / Gas Valve Fault
22
Furnace LED flashes code 22; inducer may not start or runs briefly then stops. No ignition sequence proceeds.
Inducer Motor Fault / Pressure Switch Not Proving
23
Furnace LED flashes code 23; inducer runs but ignition does not proceed. Often associated with pressure switch stuck closed or open at wrong time.
Pressure Switch Fault (Stuck Open/Closed)
24
Furnace LED flashes code 24; no response to thermostat, or intermittent operation. Often indicates open or shorted secondary (24V) circuit.
24V Control Circuit Open/Short
31
Furnace LED flashes code 31; inducer may run but ignition sequence does not complete. Often indicates pressure, draft, or venting problem.
Pressure Switch Did Not Close or Open Properly
32
Furnace LED flashes code 32; blower may run unexpectedly or not at all. Indicates low heat speed or blower fault on some Day & Night models.
Blower Motor Low Heat Speed Fault
33
Furnace LED flashes code 33; burners may light briefly then shut off, blower runs continuously. Indicates limit or rollout switch open.
Limit or Flame Rollout Switch Open
34
Furnace LED flashes code 34; ignitor may not glow or glows weakly, no burner ignition.
Ignition Proving Fault / Ignitor Failure
41
Furnace LED flashes code 41; blower may run at incorrect speed or not at all. Often indicates blower motor fault (ECM or PSC).
Blower Motor Fault / Speed Error
42
Furnace LED flashes code 42; inducer or blower may run unexpectedly, or furnace may short-cycle. Often indicates inducer or gas valve relay fault.
Inducer or Gas Valve Relay Stuck
43
Furnace LED flashes code 43; indicates pressure switch or venting problem during high-fire or low-fire operation on two-stage models.
Two-Stage Pressure Switch / Venting Fault
44
Furnace LED flashes code 44; may indicate flame sensing or communication fault on some advanced Day & Night models.
Flame Sensing Circuit / Communication Error
45
Furnace LED flashes code 45; furnace may shut down and require manual reset. Often indicates control board lockout due to repeated faults.
Hard Lockout / Multiple Faults Detected
55
Furnace LED flashes code 55; indicates no previous faults stored or memory cleared.
No Stored Fault / Memory Clear
Symptom
Furnace blower continues to run for a very long time after burners shut off, blowing cool air.
Fan Off-Delay / Stuck Fan Relay
Symptom
Furnace blower runs but burners never light; cool air blows continuously.
Stuck Fan On / No Heat Call
Symptom
Furnace causes strong vibration and rumbling through the ductwork when running.
Excessive Vibration / Duct Resonance
Symptom
Furnace cycles on and off very quickly (every 1–5 minutes) without reaching thermostat setpoint.
Thermostat or Sizing-Related Short Cycling
Symptom
Furnace frequently trips the household breaker when starting or during operation.
Overcurrent / Electrical Short
Symptom
Furnace ignitor glows but burners do not light; a faint gas smell may be present near the furnace.
No Gas Flow / Ignition Failure
Symptom
Furnace intermittently fails to start on very cold or very windy days.
Weather-Related Venting / Combustion Issues
Symptom
Furnace is very noisy during operation; rattling, squealing, or grinding sounds from the unit.
Mechanical Noise / Vibration
Symptom
Furnace makes loud booming or delayed ignition noise when burners light.
Delayed Ignition
Symptom
Furnace produces unusual odors when running, such as burning dust or metallic smell.
Odor / Contaminant Burn-Off
Symptom
Furnace runs but carbon monoxide detector in the home alarms during operation.
Combustion / Venting Hazard
Symptom
Furnace runs but produces no heat; blower runs continuously with room temperature air.
Burners Not Igniting / No Flame
Symptom
Furnace runs but some rooms are too cold while others are too warm.
Uneven Heating / Airflow Imbalance
Symptom
Furnace short cycles: burners ignite and run for 1–3 minutes, then shut off, restarting frequently.
Overheating / Limit Cycling
Symptom
Furnace starts normally but shuts off when the blower comes on.
Blower-Induced Flame Disturbance / Limit Trip
Symptom
Furnace starts then shuts down after a few seconds; burners light but go out quickly.
Flame Sensing Failure
Symptom
Furnace will not start at all; no lights, no blower, no inducer operation.
No Power to Furnace
Symptom
Rust or water stains visible inside the burner compartment or on the heat exchanger surfaces.
Internal Corrosion / Condensate Misrouting
Symptom
Thermostat calls for heat but furnace only runs the inducer; burners never ignite and no error code is visible to the homeowner.
Pressure Switch Not Closing
Symptom
Water leaking around the base of the furnace or from attached PVC pipes.
Condensate Leak (High-Efficiency Models)
