4
Open Temperature Limit Circuit
This code typically points to
  • Open temperature limit circuit
  • Burner-box manual-reset limit tripped
  • Vent/combustion-air blockage

Next checks to confirm
  1. Check limit continuity
  2. Inspect burner-box manual-reset limit
  3. Check vent and combustion-air terminations for blockage

Escalation
Gas shutoff / heating interrupted
Reset behavior
Burner-box manual-reset limit can be reset after blockage cleared; otherwise qualified servicer reset.
Safety Critical
Immediate concern
Cross-generation conflict
Legacy Code 4 was 'open limit'. The newer S-series e04 includes rollout and reverse-airflow switches in the same code — diagnostic path must branch on which device opened.
