Amana

Eb / Ec

Lockout

Gas valve circuit

Internal (Eb) or external (Ec) gas-valve electrical fault.

4 plates — walk the one on the cabinet

First check

1 Coil ohms and 24 VAC during trial only

On Amana AR9S80 measure each solenoid. 24 VAC should appear only during trial / the commanded stage. Valve coil ohms, 24 VAC at the harness during trial.

Expect: Coil ohms per the valve sticker. 24 VAC only when the IFC commands that stage.

The rest of the walkthrough is Diagnose.

On the plates

Valve coil ohms, 24 VAC at the harness during trial.
Do not apply 24 V to a leaking valve as a ‘test’ and walk away.
