Soft lockout
This code typically points to
  • No flame sensed after four ignition trials
  • Four flame failures during one call for heat

Next checks to confirm
  1. Verify gas supply and manifold pressure
  2. Verify polarity and grounding
  3. Inspect spark/ignitor alignment
  4. Inspect flame sensor and flame carryover
  5. Verify gas valve wiring and 24V at valve during trials

Escalation
System attempts ignition 4 times, then enters 1-hour soft lockout; main blower and inducer run 180 seconds between 2nd and 3rd trials; neither ignition control nor gas valve re-energizes until lockout expires or is reset
Reset behavior
Turn off 115V power to furnace OR turn thermostat OFF for 5-10 seconds.
