1. Install properly.
1. Prove the power source.
2. If item B1 checks out and
modulating voltages are
still not obtained, amplifi er
(RE-26) may be assumed
faulty. Replace.
3. Contact Factory.
4. Correct the wiring.
1. Replace modulator head
if not approximately 45-55
ohms for M611 Valve and
60-80 ohms for MR212
Valve.
2. Clean or replace plunger if
necessary.
1. Adjust to proper minimum
fi re.
2. If reading is greater than 1.5"
negative pressure, check
for clogged fi lters or other
inlet air restrictions. Consult
factory for other solutions.
1. Replace Outside Air
Temperature Sensor (TS-01)
or Discharge Air Temperature
Sensor (TS-03
1. Clean seat. Clean valve or
replace if necessary.
2. Clean, or if necessary,
replace plunger.

1. Arrow on side of valve should
point in direction of gas fl ow.
1. Check for 24V AC at
amplifi er (RE-26) terminals
7 & 8.
2. Check item B1. Check
for 0-10 VDC input signal
from (UC-01) at terminals
1 & 2. Check for 0-20 VAC
output signal to gas valve at
terminals 5 & 6.
3. Check DC Voltage on AO-1.
4. Inspect.
1. Measure resistance across
modulator terminals 5 & 6 with
connecting wires detached.
2. Inspect. Plunger should be
installed to operate freely in
solenoid sleeve.
1. See valve adjustments in
Section X.
2. Close main gas supply and
measure manifold pressure
with blower operating.
Reading should be less than
1.5" w.c. negative pressure.
1. Check Outside Air
Temperature Sensor
(TS-01) or Discharge Air
Temperature Sensor (TS-03)
for open internal circuit. See
Thermistor curve.
1. Remove bottom plate and
inspect valve and seat.
2. Inspect. Plunger should
be smooth and clean and
operate freely in solenoid
sleeve.
(Refer to Digital Control System User Manual for additional troubleshooting suggestions)
1. Modulating valve
improperly installed.
1. Short circuit or no
voltage to the amplifi er
(RE-26).
2. Faulty amplifi er (RE-26).
3. No output voltage on
UC-10.
4. Jumper not connected
across amplifi er (RE-26)
terminals 3 & 4.
1. Short circuit or open
circuit in Modulator Coil.
2. Plunger missing,
jammed or improperly
installed.
1. Incorrect by-pass
metering valve
adjustment.
2. Excessive negative
burner pressure.
1. Open circuit in Outside
Air Temperature Sensor
(TS-01) or Discharge
Air Temperature Sensor
(TS-03) circuit or wiring.
1. Foreign object holding
valve open.
2. Plunger jammed.
