What the control is telling you

A steady green light (no heartbeat, no flashing) means the board has locked itself out. It clears on its own after 1 hour.

Applies to: KeepRite (F/G)9MXE single-stage and (F/G)9MXT two-stage 95% furnaces

Likely causes

  • Fault in the flame sensing circuit
  • Gas valve relay stuck closed on the board
  • Internal software check failure

Test and repair steps

  1. Cycle power to the furnace to clear the lockout.
  2. Watch a full heating cycle.
  3. If the steady light comes back, replace the furnace control.
