Air Supply or Exhaust Blockage/Condensate Trap
is Full
Ensure condensate line is not blocked.
Ensure internal air lter is clean with no obstrucons.

Ensure ame rod wire is connected.
Ensure gas type and inlet gas pressure is correct.
Bleed all air from gas lines.
14
Heat Exchanger Overheat
Measure resistance of Overheat Switch.*
Check heat exchanger surface for hot spots which indicate
blockage due to scale build-up.
Refer to instrucons in manual for ushing heat exchanger.
Hard water must be treated to prevent scale build up or
damage to the heat exchanger.
Ensure it is not forced Hi seng.
15
Venturi Control
Ensure the Venturi motor is operang correctly.*
Replace gas valve assembly.
Clear diagnosc code by reseng the main power supply
to the water heater.
16
High Outgoing Temperature
(safety shutdown because water heater is too
hot)
Conrm fan motor is funconing correctly.
Replace the gas valve assembly.
17
Venturi Blockage
Ensure Venturi isn't blocked.
Please call Rinnai technical department.
