CONTROL DISPLAY STATUS

PROBLEM

SOLUTION

"FV-SENSE" Flashing

(Continued from previous page)

4. System must be manually reset by entering a

special FVS reset sequence into the Electronic

Control Display. See Electronic Control

Display - FV - Sense Reset Sequence in

the kenmore PCC Water Heater Service

Handbook.

10. "LDO-SW", "OPEN", and "CLEAN SCREEN"

Flashing

The air pressure switch contacts

remain open longer than 5

seconds after the combustion fan

is energized.

1. Clean the screen on the combustion air

intake chamber, retest.

2. If the problem persists: Cycle power to the

water heater "OFF" and "ON" to reset.

11. "FV-SENSE" and "OPEN" Flashing Flammable Vapor Sensor is open

1. Check all wiring to the flammable vapor

sensor.

2. Remove the connectors from the

flammable vapor sensor and measure

the resistance of the sensor with an

ohmmeter.

A. If the reading taken is more than

1.7 million ohms, replace the

flammable vapor sensor.

B. If the reading taken is less than 1.7

million ohms, and the wiring from

the control to the sensor is good,

replace the lower control.

12. "FV-SENSE" and "SHORT" Flashing Flammable Vapor Sensor is

shorted

1. Check all wiring to the flammable vapor

sensor.

2. Remove the connectors from the

flammable vapor sensor and measure

the resistance of the sensor with an

ohmmeter.

A. If the reading taken is less than

2000 ohms, replace the flammable

vapor sensor.

B. If the reading taken is more than

2000 ohms, and the wiring from the

control to the sensor is good,

replace the lower control.

13. "THMSTR" and "OPEN" Flashing The self-diagnostic test has

detected the temperature sensor

(thermistor) inside the immersion

probe is open.

1. Turn power off for 10 to 20 seconds then

on again to clear this error code.

2. This part of the control cannot be

replaced or serviced. If the error code

cannot be cleared, the lower control must

be replaced.

14. "THMSTR" and "SHORT" Flashing The self-diagnostic test has

detected the temperature sensor

(thermistor) inside the immersion

probe is shorted.

1. Turn power off for 10 to 20 seconds then

on again to clear this error code.

2. This part of the control cannot be

replaced or serviced. If the error code

cannot be cleared, the lower control must

be replaced.

15. All Segments Flashing

The self-diagnostic check has

detected one or both of the

temperature adjustment buttons

are stuck.

1. Press and release each of the

temperature adjustment buttons. If the

above action does not clear the error, the

control will continue to regulate the water

temperature at the last setting. However,

settings will no longer be adjustable - the

upper control should be replaced.

16. "P-ANODE" and "OPEN" Flashing No current to Power Anode.

1. Check the wire that runs from the power

anode to the upper control. Check the

wire for damage, and to ensure that the

connectors are fully seated into the

mating connectors on both ends.

2. Check that the tank is full of water. Never

use this water heater unless it is

completely full of water. To prevent

damage to the tank, the tank must be

filled with water. Water must flow from

the hot water faucet before turning "ON"

gas to the water heater.

3. Cycle power to the water heater "OFF" and

"ON" to reset.

17. "P-ANODE" Flashing

Power Anode circuit failure.

1. Turn the power off for 10 to 20 seconds

then on again to clear the error code.

2. If the error code persists or cannot be

cleared, replace the upper control.
