SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can be
hazardous due to system pressure and electrical components.
Only trained and qualified service personnel should install, repair,
or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions of
cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All other operations
should be performed by trained service personnel. When working
on air-conditioning equipment, observe precautions in the
literature, tags and labels attached to the unit, and other safety
precautions that may apply.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Use
quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have fire extinguishers
available for all brazing operations.
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-- alert symbol
. When you see this symbol on the furnace and in
instructions or manuals, be alert to the potential for personal
injury.
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and
CAUTION. These words are used with the safety--alert symbol.
DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in
severe personal injury or death. WARNING signifies a hazard
which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used
to identify unsafe practices which may result in minor personal
injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to
highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced installation,
reliability, or operation.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause personal
injury or death.
Before performing service or maintenance operations
on unit, turn off main power switch to unit and install
lockout tag. Ensure electrical service to rooftop unit
agrees with voltage and amperage listed on the unit
rating plate.

    What to do if my Carrier 48HE003---006 Air Conditioner has an ignition lockout?
    • M
      Maria SwansonAug 15, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner is experiencing an ignition lockout, meaning it unsuccessfully attempted ignition for 15 minutes, you should check the ignitor and flame sensor electrode spacing and gaps. Also, ensure that the flame sense and ignition wires are properly terminated and verify that the unit is obtaining the proper amount of gas.

    What to do if my Carrier Air Conditioner shows a limit switch fault?
    • N
      Nicholas ColonAug 18, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner shows a limit switch fault (LED 2 Flashes), it means that the high temperature limit switch is open. Check the operation of the indoor (evaporator) fan motor. Make sure that the supply-air temperature rise is within the range specified on the unit nameplate.
  • B

    What to do if my Carrier 48HE003---006 has 4 consecutive limit switch faults?
    • J
      jasonmartinezAug 22, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner is showing 4 consecutive limit switch faults, it indicates inadequate airflow to the unit. Check the operation of the indoor (evaporator) fan motor and verify that the supply-air temperature rise agrees with the range on the unit nameplate information.

    What does it mean when my Carrier Air Conditioner has a Rollout Switch Fault?
    • C
      cherrylauraAug 25, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner displays a Rollout Switch Fault (LED 7 Flashes), it means the rollout switch has opened. The rollout switch will automatically reset, but the IGC will continue to lock out the unit. Check the gas valve operation and ensure that the induced-draft blower wheel is properly secured to the motor shaft. Reset the unit at the unit disconnect.

    Why is the fan ON/OFF delay modified on my Carrier 48HE003---006?
    • M
      mcculloughjavierAug 27, 2025
      If the fan ON/OFF delay is modified on your Carrier Air Conditioner, it could be because the high limit switch opens during the heat exchanger warm-up period before the fan-on delay expires, or the limit switch opens within three minutes after blower-off delay timing in Heating mode. To resolve this, ensure the unit is fired on the correct rate and that the temperature rise is correct. Also, make sure the unit’s external static pressure is within the application guidelines.

    What does it mean when my Carrier 48HE003---006 displays an Induced-Draft Motor Fault?
    • J
      Jonathan HerreraAug 30, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner is showing an Induced-Draft Motor Fault (LED 6 Flashes), it means the IGC does not sense that the induced-draft motor is operating. Check for proper voltage to the motor. If the motor is operating, check the speed sensor plug/IGC Terminal J2 connection, ensuring the connection is correct: PIN 1— White, PIN 2 — Red, PIN 3 — Black.

    What should I do if my Carrier 48HE003---006 has a Flame Sense Fault?
    • E
      Eric ColemanSep 2, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner is showing a Flame Sense Fault (LED 3 Flashes), it means that the IGC sensed a flame that should not be present. Reset the unit. If the problem persists, replace the control board.

    What does it mean if my Carrier 48HE003---006 Air Conditioner displays an Internal Control Fault?
    • R
      Richard MillerSep 5, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner is showing an Internal Control Fault (LED 8 Flashes), it means the microprocessor has sensed an error in the software or hardware. If resetting the unit power does not clear the error code, replace the IGC.

    How to troubleshoot a Carrier 48HE003---006 hardware failure?
    • C
      Chad SmithSep 8, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner has a hardware failure indicated by the LED being off, it suggests a loss of power to the control module (IGC). Check the 5 amp fuse on the IGC, the power to the unit, the 24-v circuit breaker, and the transformer. For units without a 24-v circuit breaker, there is an internal overload in the 24-v transformer; if the overload trips, allow 10 minutes for automatic reset.

    What causes a temporary software lockout on a Carrier 48HE003---006 Air Conditioner?
    • T
      timothycarrollSep 12, 2025
      If your Carrier Air Conditioner is experiencing a temporary software lockout (LED 9 Flashes), it means electrical interference is impeding the IGC software. Reset the 24-v to the control board or turn the thermostat off and then on. The fault will automatically reset itself in one hour.
