SOURCE: pool heater will not turn on, elec. power good,
Check the limit switch. It may be stuck open and if it is it stops the unit from running. Also check thermostat setting and make sure it is working. Make sure the flame sensor is working. The system will start sometimes but if the flame sensor doesn't see a flame it shuts down. Good luck...Lee

Part one - The 'whoosh' or 'boom' at ignition. If those sounds describe your start up your jet(s) are clogged along the gas manifold. Follow the pipe out of the gas valve down to where the gas is shot into the heater. Those bronze ports have a small opening and spiders like to nest inside this area. Turn them out of the manifold and inspect them. You should find those closest to the ignitor are clogged causing the delay and then boom of ignition.
Part 2 - Have this happen enough and the roll out switch / fused link along the bottom of the heaters service panel will open up and disable the heater. It will look like a black rubber tube about 1/4 diameter by about 2 inches long -OR- a white ceramic block about the diameter of a quarter; either will have 2 wires to it and it will be 'close' to the manifold and jets you need to clean out. If you have a way to read resistance across this switch remove the wires from it and check it. If it is open it will need to be replaced.

Don, I suspect the error message is the cause of your problems. A flow error is either real (low flow) or not (bad flow switch). Either way, you get the error code displayed. Always take the filter out of the equation first to make sure it's just not a dirty filter causing the issue. A sand filter can be placed in the "bypass" position or a filter cartridge could be removed. Restart the pump and see if the error code goes away. If it does, clogged filter, real flow problem. Clean / replace the filter. If it does not go away, locate the pressure switch, pull off the two leads and jump them together. If the code goes away, false problem, bad switch. Replace it. Rob
