I have a Trane induced draft gas furnace, model TUE100A948A1. I have natural gas suppply, power, and thermostat connection/signal. Have already done basic troubleshooting - turning local power on/off, gas on/off with no success. The draft inducer motor turns on from thermostat signal, but the gas burners never ignite. Is my next logical step replacing the HSI?
Not sure what you mean. My furnace does not have an LED indicator. While a semi-skilled DIYer, I have very mediocre electrical skill. Do I need some sort of equipment to get the error code you have suggested?
I'm guessing that after the vent motor comes on that a pressure proving system will need to prove the motor is operating before the gas valve & HSI is powered up. You can skip checking the pressure system and see if the HSI is electrically charged before the lock out occurs. If Hsi that isn't heating up is powered then changing the HSI is the next step. If its not powered then you need to look at the pressure system for loose air lines or or electrical connections. The pressure switch controls can get blocked by the smallest piece of debris that can be carefully dislodged if you know what you're doing. Anything that affects the pressure like a failing vent motor, obstructed exhaust vent or intake will also stop the hsi from working.
That's my guess at your next diagnostic step.
Best of luck
