Safety Considerations

Only trained personnel should install or service heating equipment. 
When working with heating equipment, be sure to read and 
understand all precautions in the documentation, on labels, and 
on tags that accompany the equipment. Failure to follow all safety 
guidelines may result in damage to equipment, severe personal 
injury or death.

Introduction

The ICM282 fixed speed furnace control replaces the following 
Carrier modules: HK42FZ004, HK42FZ007, HK42FZ008, 
HK42FZ009, HK42FZ011, HK42FZ013, and HK42FZ016. 
The ICM282 has incorporated LED diagnostics to assist in 
troubleshooting. A fault code label is included in this package and 
must be installed on the furnace.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions

CAUTION!

Use caution when installing and servicing the furnace to avoid 

and control electrostatic discharge; ESD can impact electronic 

components. These precautions must be followed to prevent 

electrostatic discharge from hand tools and personnel. Following 

the precautions will protect the control from ESD by discharging 

static electricity buildup to ground.

1.  Disconnect all power to the furnace. Do not touch the control 

or the wiring prior to discharging your body’s electrostatic 
charge to ground.

2. To ground yourself, touch your hand and tools to a clean, 

metal (unpainted) furnace surface near the control board.

3.  Service the furnace after touching the chassis. Your body 

will recharge with static electricity as you shuffle your feet or 
move around, and you must reground yourself. 

4.  Reground yourself if you touch ungrounded items. 
5.  Before handling a new control, reground yourself; this will 

protect the control. Store used and new controls in separate 
containers before touching ungrounded objects.

6.  ESD damage can also be prevented by using an ESD service 

kit.

4.  For 80% furnaces, remove control access and blower door; 

for 90% furnaces, remove outer door assembly and remove 
the two screws from blower access panel and set aside.

equipped), and transformer wires.

7.  For 80% furnaces, remove retaining screws and remove 

furnace control board from bracket; for 90% furnaces, remove 
two screws from blower deck that hold the control box 
assembly. Lower the control box assembly. Remove retaining 
screw(s) from board and remove board from control box 
assembly.

8.  Remove wiring harness connectors from circuit board.
9.  Examine control and control box to check for water stains.
10.  Make repairs if any sources of water leakage are found. 

Be sure to check humidifiers, evaporator coils, and vent 
systems in the area of the control.

Step 1: Remove Existing Control

CAUTION!

To service control, and prior to disconnection, label all wires. 

Failure to do so may result in wiring errors that can cause 

dangerous operation.

1.  Turn thermostat to OFF position or set it to the lowest 

possible setting.

2.  Turn OFF electrical supply to furnace.
3.  Turn OFF gas supply to furnace.
