How Coleman Furnaces Display Error Codes

The furnace has built-in, self diagnostic capability. If a system problem occurs, a fault code is shown by a blinking green LED. It is located behind a clear view port in the blower compartment door. DO NOT turn off furnace power as this action will clear the control's memory of the fault. Flash sequence codes 1 through 6 are as follows: LED will turn "on" for one second and "off" for one second. This pattern will be repeated the number of times equal to the code. All flash code sequences are broken by a 2 second "off" period.

About Coleman

Coleman Heating & Air Conditioning began as a division of the Coleman Company in 1958. In 1990, the HVAC division was acquired by Evcon, an HVAC-focused business entity. Evcon was subsequently acquired by Johnson Controls in 1996, bringing the Coleman brand into one of the world's largest building technology companies.

Johnson Controls International plc was founded in 1885 by Warren S. Johnson, a professor at Whitewater Normal School in Wisconsin, who had received a patent for the first electric room thermostat in 1883. As of fiscal year 2025, Johnson Controls reported revenue of $23.6 billion and employed approximately 87,000 people worldwide, with headquarters in Cork, Ireland.
