Unfortunately this year i am on my own and don t know what to do.
Trane furnace system lockout.
Most furnace lock outs are caused by problems with igniters flame sensors and limit switches.
Gas and oil home heating furnaces trane xl 80 system lockout.
Check all incoming and outgoing vents on the furnace air system including on the furnace and clear away anything that may be blocking the air flow.
Then reset the furnace.
I ignites about six.
About 10 seconds after the hot igniter starts to glow the gas comes.
After 2 weeks of working well the furnace started having the same lock out issues after 3 attempts to light.
After about 1 3 minutes the fan motor begins to run and delivers heat through the duct system.
The system did the same thing tried twice to turn on but we still do not have 24v at the red and gray wires going into the top of the gas control.
The furnace will go into lockout sometime in the next 24 hours.
For example a clogged air filter may prevent an adequate supply of air from entering the system s cold air return that causes the heat exchanger limit switch to trip.
At least the instructions with the new board are a little better than what i had with the first one.
My trane furnace is flashing the 2 red light system lockout code.
The remedy to this problem is simple replace the air filter.
We also do not have an outside air source however we always keep the laundry room door open for better airflow.
I have a trane xl 80 system.
All furnaces need to have adequate ventilation and a dirty air filter can cause a system lockout to occur.
It then went into lockout.
If one of the sensors reports an unsafe condition the furnace controller shuts off fuel and power to prevent unsafe operation.
It does this every year.
Three flashes on the trane furnace control board means that the vent pressure is too high or too low which then activates the pressure switch and causes a lockout.
Your furnace normally will remain in the locked out state until you manually reset it.
At least now i have a way to reset the lockout.
