What Does the Blinking Light on My Furnace Mean?
Your heater uses lights to flash code when it needs to be repaired. It also uses these lights to tell you it’s operating properly.
Normal function consists of:
- Concurrent slow flash—furnace heating correctly.
- Both lights flash fast—heating system is beginning to call for heat.
If you see a lone light flashing slowly and the other blinking rapidly, your heating system might have a low flame signal. This can happen even when your furnace is running like it should. It indicates the flame sensing rod may need to be cleaned or in the wrong location on the burner. Call us at 510-343-9841 for help.
