ULTRACHECK-EZ
TM
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
The UltraCheck-EZ
TM
diagnostic tool is the preferred method
(part # UTT-01) to diagnose the ECM motor.
HIGH VOLTAGE!
Disconnect ALL power before servicing
or installing. Multiple power sources
may be present. Failure to do so may
cause property damage, personal injury
or death.
To use the diagnostic tool, perform the following steps:
1. Disconnect power to the furnace.
2. Disconnect the 4-circuit control harness from the motor.
3. Plug the 4-circuit connector from the diagnostic tool into
the motor control connector.
4. Connect one alligator clip from the diagnostic tool to a
ground source.
5. Connect the other alligator clip to a 24VAC source.
NOTE:
The alligator clips are NOT polarized.
NOTE:
The UltraCheck-EZ
TM
diagnostic tool is equipped
with a non-replaceable fuse. Connecting the tool to a source
other than 24VAC could damage the tool and cause the fuse
to open. Doing so will render the diagnostic tool inoperable.
6. Turn on power to the furnace.
WARNING
Line Voltage now present.
7. Depress the orange power button on the diagnostic tool
to send a run signal to the motor. Allow up to 5 seconds
for the motor to start.
NOTE:
If the orange power button does not illuminate when
depressed, the tool either has an open fuse or is not properly
connected to a 24VAC source.
8. The green LED on the diagnostic tool will blink indicating
communications between the tool and motor. See table
below for indications of tool indicators and motor actions.
Replace or repair as needed.

or death.
1. Disconnect power to the furnace.
2. Disconnect the 5-circuit power connector to the ECM motor.
3. Turn on power to the furnace.
