If the code comes back

Do not keep replacing parts based only on the code. Repeat the safe checks above. If the fault remains, stop and arrange qualified service rather than ordering from the code alone.

What may be causing it?

  • Gas supply issue
  • Faulty igniter
  • Dirty or faulty flame sensor
  • Defective gas valve coils
  • Lint buildup in the burner tube

These are possibilities to investigate, not proof that one part has failed.
