Quick answer
Ignition-control ROM, RAM, analog, flame-sense, or execution fault.
Severity: high · DIY difficulty: easy
Safety
Stop at the exterior: power-cycle at the disconnect, clean the filter/basket, and check for obvious water-flow blockage. Pool heaters combine gas piping, 240 V wiring, and (on heat pumps) refrigerant — burner, control-board, and sealed-system work requires a licensed technician. If you smell gas, shut the gas valve and leave the area first.
What Ign Ctrl Fault 2 / 3 / 5 / 6 / 7 means
Ignition-control ROM, RAM, analog, flame-sense, or execution fault.
Code meaning varies by series
- X94 / SR-410 (Professional Series Digital): Ign Ctrl Fault 2: ROM CRC failure on Ignition Control Board. 3: RAM failure. 5: A/D failure. 6: Flame sense circuit failure. 7: Out of sequence execution detected.
First checks before service
1. One-time fault event (power disturbance or transient sensor reading) common DIY
Check: Power-cycle at the breaker/disconnect (or unplug for CPAP), restore, and run the system while watching for the code.
Fix: If the code does not return after a full run cycle, the fault was transient — monitor, no repair needed.
2. Fault persists after a clean reset occasional pro only
Check: If the code returns immediately or every session, note the conditions (startup, heating, after rain).
Fix: A persisting code points at the component the manual assigns to this code — that repair is technician territory.
