Airflow / overtemp.
Walk 4 flash in Diagnose
3 plates — walk the one on the cabinet
First check
1 Airflow before you touch the limit
On Lennox ML180 a limit is airflow or overfire until proven otherwise. Do not replace the limit first. Filter, blower wheel, A-coil, and the heat-speed setting for THIS motor (tap, model plug, or communicating CFM — not a sister SKU chart). Blower speed, filter, coil, rise. 80% cabinets still starve on a media filter.
Expect: Rise in the rating-plate window. Static vs this cabinet’s blower chart.
The rest of the walkthrough is Diagnose.
On the plates
- Tap or PSC speed, filter, coil, rise.
- Blower speed, filter, coil, rise. 80% cabinets still starve on a media filter.
