Why a code is not a diagnosis
The code reports the condition the control detected; the underlying cause must be confirmed on site by a licensed technician using the manufacturer's procedure.
Safe things to observe
- Note the exact code, when it appears and what the appliance was doing.
- If the appliance has stopped, call a technician rather than repeatedly restarting it.
- If you smell gas, stop, go outside and call your gas utility's emergency line or 911 before anything else.
Do not
- Do not ignore a code that returns after a reset.
How professional service helps
- A licensed technician diagnoses the cause with the manufacturer's test procedure.
- Combustion and safety devices are verified with an analyser and the manufacturer's procedure after any repair.
