      The 'six flashes, then three flashes' error on your Bradford White Water Heater indicates a soft lockout, which could be due to: * Unstable pilot. * Pilot tube blocked or restricted. * Oxidation build up on pilot electrode. * Wire damage to pilot assembly or bad connection at gas valve. * Insufficient combustion air. * Low gas pressure. The system resets automatically after 5 minutes.

      If your Bradford White Water Heater is showing six flashes followed by two flashes, with a three-second pause, it signifies a soft lockout. This may be caused by: * Pressure switch tubing kinked or blocked. * Vent blockage or improper vent configuration. * Vent termination being affected by windy conditions. * Blower not spinning up to speed. * Vent temperature too high. * Faulty pressure switch or blower temperature switch. The system is designed to automatically reset after 5 minutes.
