Customer Question

We have a Coleman furnace model DGAA090BDTA, in a mobile home. The electricity went out for a few hours today and when the electricity returned the furnace didn't work. The code on the furnace shows 4 flashes, which means limit switch open. How can I fix this?

Thank you for any help, I really appreciate it!

Hello, most likely the furnace was running when power went out. This means the exchanger as hot and the blower shut off...thus the heat limit switch tripped. Is this a downflow unit?

Customer replied 1249 days and 8 hours ago.

The furnace blower blows air down.

see if you can switches like this at the link and press the center. There may be one in the blower section also. Let me know if one clicks when pressed

I do not see any switches like the one shown. There are two on the wiring diagram but they do not look like the picture. They are solid with no button to reset.

I did find a reset switch on the upper limit switch, and I pressed the button and the furnace started.
