Energy Manager Check
Troubleshooting
The burner will not run unless there is a call for heat (thermostat call) or a call for domestic hot water (tank
aquastat).
Note: Do NOT Jumper Connections or Apply Voltage to Test the Manager.
Follow these simple steps:
1. Look at the Manager
2. See what it is telling you is supposed to be happening.
3. See if it is happening, and if it is not, find out why (see below).
4. If you do not find the problem, perform the 2 Minute Energy Manager Diagnostic to check all Manager
functions.
Remember:
Most ‘no heat’ problems are not caused by the Manager.
and
The Manager cannot cause a burner lockout.
These are zone output lights.
If the light is ON, the zone valve should be open. For hot
water, the bronze circulator should be running.
If zone valve is not open with the light on, check the
zone valve and zone valve wiring. For hot water, check
the hot water relay, wiring, and the bronze circulator.
These are the thermostat
input lights. These lights
indicate when a thermostat
is calling and only come on
when there is an external
connection.
If the light is not ON,
check the thermostat
and thermostat wiring.
If the light is ON, the
thermostat is calling.
This is the LCD display.
If no alerts are present,
the display will show the
operation mode and the
return temperature.
If an alert is detected, it
will be displayed here,
along with brief
diagnostic or
informational details.
This is the burner output.
This light indicates T-T is
made on the burner.
If the light is ON, the
burner should be
running.
If the light is on and
the burner is not
running, check the
burner, limit aquastat,
wiring, burner/main
circulator relay, and
burner service switch.
This is the power vent
inducer output. This light
should only operate if dip
switch 2 is on.
If the light is ON, the
inducer should be
running.
If the light is on and
the inducer is not
running, check the
inducer, wiring, and
inducer relay and
wiring.
This is the burner/main circulator output. This light
indicates 24 volts is applied to the burner/main circulator
relay coil.
If the light is ON, the main circulator will be running,
and the burner primary control should have line
voltage.
If the light is on and the circulator is not running,
check the burner/main circulator relay, the circulator,
and associated wiring.
