troubleshootingguidefortheboileronpage38.Inusingthesecharts,thefollowingshouldbekeptinmind:
1) Thesechartsareonlymeanttobeusedbyaprofessionalheatingtechnicianasanaidindiagnosingcontrolproblems.
2) Whereapplicable,followallprecautionsoutlinedintheappropriatelightinginstructionsonpages25-26.
3) Ingeneral,thesechartsassumethattherearenolooseormiswiredelectricalconnections.Beforeusingthesecharts,in-
spectallelectricalconnectionsontheboilertomakesurethattheyaretight.Also,checkthewiringontheboileragainst
theappropriatewiringdiagraminFigures16-17.
4) Thepossiblecausesattheendofeachbranchinthesechartsarenotlistedinorderoflikelihood.AllcontrolsontheBSI
aretestedatleastonceinthemanufacturingprocessandadefectivecontrolorcomponentisgenerallytheleastlikely
cause.Beforereplacingacomponent,trytoruleoutallotherpossiblecauses.
5) Thesetroubleshootingchartsassumethattheventdamperisclosedatthebeginningofthetroubleshootingprocess.With
the120voltsappliedtotheboilerandnocallforheat,thedampershouldgototheclosedposition.Ifitdoesnot,dothe
following:
Conrmthat120voltsisappliedtotheboilerandthatthereisnocallforheat.
Makesurethattheswitchonthedamperisinthe“automatic”position.
Unplugtheharnessfromthedamperandcheckfor24voltsacrosspin#1(blue)andpin#4(yellow).
Ifvoltageispresent,thedamperisdefectiveorthereisanobstructioninthepathofthedamperblade.
Ifnovoltageispresent,thereiseitheralooseconnectioninthedamperharnessorthetransformerisdefective.
6) Ifthechartsindicatethatthetransformerisdefective,itispossiblethatthistransformerhasbeendestroyedbyashort
circuitintheboilerwiring.Beforereplacingthetransformer,carefullyinspectalllowvoltagewiringontheboilerfor
placeswhereitistouchingtheframeoftheboilerorwiringontheothersideofthetransformer.
7) IfthechartsindicatethattheR8225relayisdefective,thereisagoodchancethatasecondtransformerispresentinthe
thermostatcircuit,resultingintheapplicationof48voltsacrosstherelaycoil.Inolderbuildings,thistransformermaybe
hiddeninalocationfarfromtheboiler.Ifthissecondtransformerexists,itmustbefoundandremovedbeforetheR8225
isreplaced.
8) Whencheckingvoltageacrossdamperharnesspins,becarefulnottoinsertthemeterprobesintothepins.Doingsomay
damagethepin,resultinginalooseconnectionwhentheharnessisreconnected.
