Goodman GMV8 furnace fault codes
Every diagnostic code Goodman publishes for the GMV8 series — 12 of them — taken from the manufacturer's own per-model fault code database rather than from a general table.
Codes differ between models from the same manufacturer, which is why this list is worth reading in preference to a brand-wide one. Six flashes means a rollout switch on some Goodman models and a rollout limit or a blown control module fuse on others. A count that appears on one board may not exist on another at all.
GMV8 codes
| What the LED shows | What it means |
|---|---|
| LED off | No power to the furnace, or an internal control fault |
| continuous on | Normal operation — no fault stored |
| rapid flashing | Reversed 115 volt polarity, a grounding problem, or an open igniter circuit |
| 1 flash | Lockout after too many failed ignition attempts |
| 2 flashes | Pressure switch is closed when it should be open |
| 3 flashes | Pressure switch will not close |
| 4 flashes | High limit switch is open — the furnace is overheating |
| 5 flashes | Flame detected when no flame should be present |
| 6 flashes | Rollout switch has tripped |
| 7 flashes | Flame signal is too weak |
| 8 flashes | Igniter circuit fault, most often caused by poor grounding |
| 9 flashes | High stage pressure switch stuck open |
