Carrier · VVT-1T System
The slave thermostat's 'HEAT' annunciator is illuminated, indicating a heating demand, but the LED on the associated HR-03 Relay Pack is not lit. This suggests that the supplemental heat source is not being energized, potentially due to a problem with the damper actuator or the relay pack itself, despite the system controller calling for heat.
Click steps to track your progress.
Verify the slave thermostat's associated system controller is correctly configured for a heating mode that should energize supplemental heat.
At the damper actuator, unplug the relay pack and check the DC voltage between PIN 1 (common) and PIN 5 (H1); it should be 7.5 to 9.5 VDC steady.
If the slave thermostat zone demand is >= 2.0°F, verify the voltage between PIN 1 and both PIN 5 (H1) and PIN 6 (H2) is the same. If not, replace the damper actuator circuit board.
With the relay pack plugged in, check the DC voltage across the relay pack input connector plug (between the black wire and the appropriate input wire); it should be 4 to 6 VDC steady. If not, replace the relay pack.
