Home owner's manual? Troubleshooting section. Gas or electric?
If gas, pilot light may be out, or other gas controls. Are you sure you have gas supply? Do you have other Gas appliances so you can check? Furnace needs power for controls, fan and thermostat. Are you sure you have electric power to the furnace? Does the thermostat have a fan switch? If so turn it on and see if the fan turns on. If it does not turn on you may have a circut breaker poped. or some other reason power to the furnace is not working.
YOUR FURNACE IS IN LOCKOUT MODE DUE TO A SAFETY FEATURE OF UNIT. USUALLY THE HIGH LIMIT HAS BEEN TRIPPED, OR YOU PRESSURE SWITCH FROM DRAFT INDUCER MOTOR FAULTY OR PLUGGED. IT WILL CONTINUE LOCKOUT MODE UNTIL THIS IS FIXED.
1) the flame sensor is not detecting the flame
2) pressure switch fails to close
Since your burners are not igniting I would check the pressure switch, make sure there is no obstruction in the flue pipe, the hose going from inducer to pressure switch is not kinked, loose, obstructed, or have water in it. If that all checks out good then your pressure switch is bad and must be replaced. If you need any further assisatnce let me know
Usually a lockout code means it tryed so many times and then it locks out or stops. First, when a furnace is locked out you have to kill the power to the furnace to reset the lockout. I don't know this furnace but there are manual resets around the burner called flame rollout switches that have buttons in the middle that have to be pushed back in. Also the power vent has to come on when the furnace gets the signal from the thermostat. This is proven by a flow switch with a rubber hose on it. The next step is a 30 sec. purge, then the igniter glows or sparks and then the main burner comes on.
The other switches are hi limit on the front wall of the heat exchanger. That might get you started. If you have anymore questions [email protected]
the rollout switches will be located at the ends of the burner assembly and will have a manual reset. they must be manually reset to ensure that the problem has been corrected. Most units will go into a soft lockout for a time and eventually a hard lockout if the problem persists. Go to tempstar.com and go to their troubleshooting section for a gas furnace. the codes they give are pretty common for alot of furnaces and see if they help
Make sure you have gas to the unit and the switch on top of valve is turn to on. Can you here the gas valve click? It igniter comes on and a delay and the gas valve should come on. Kill power to furnace to reset control board. Rus Let me know how it goes.
