Outdoor Coil Sensor Faulty
Critical Sensor being detected open or shorted, or temperature is out of sensor
range. Outdoor unit control will not perform demand or time/temperature
defrost operation. (System will still heat or cool.) Clears when outdoor unit
control detects proper sensor readings.
417 (Outdoor Unit)
Discharge Sensor Faulty
Critical Outdoor unit control detects open or shorted sensor, or temperature that is
out of sensor range. Critical Alert after 10 minutes. Reset by replacing
sensor. This fault is detected by allowing the unit to run for 90 seconds
before checking sensor resistance. If the sensor resistance is not within
range after 90 seconds, the board will count one fault. After 5 faults, the
board will lock out. Check for proper sensor reading and attachment to
line. Replace if out−of−spec.

No. Issue / Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action / Comments
1 No electric heat operation.
The thermostat system setting
does not offer a emerg. heat
choice on an HP system.
The thermostat does not offer
any "heat" choice on an AC
system with air handler with
electric heat.
Electric heat was not
manually configured con-
figured at the Air Handler
Control (AHC) before the
icomfort Touch system
discovery process at initial
power−up.
Manually configure to discover the electric heat sec-
tion(s) on the air handling (see Page 36 or CBX32MV or
CBX40UHV manual for details).
Re−setup the icomfort system by selecting the setup tab
in the Installer program and press start to begin system
discovery; then reconfigure the system.
2 Thermostat Displays System
Waiting message and the fur-
nace does respond to a heating
demand (no red critical alert
icon or alert messages are dis-
played on the thermostat).

guard" mode (moderate
alert) and will not display
the red critical alert icon
nor be displayed in the
homeowner alert tab.
Go to the installer program alert tab to view all alerts and
details about those alerts.
If the furnace is in "watchguard" mode, the furnace can
be reset from the Home screen by setting the thermostat
system settings to off for 20 sec, then back to heat.
Then initiate a new heat demand.

played on the thermostat.
Outdoor Temp Display

then use arrows to scroll down to Outdoor Temp Dis-
play. Press modify button and use select to select On
and then press the save button.

erences menu, the system does not have an outdoor
sensor and one must be added.
