furnace thermostat error

Introduction: A furnace thermostat is an electronic device that senses the temperature inside a building and turns the heating equipment on and off by turning on the indoor furnaces only when needed. If there is no power, the gas fireplace or central heating unit will not go on.

The error code will appear on the screen for about 5 seconds after pressing the RUN CONDITIONER button.
