Full Diagnosis

Control Board Failure / Voltage Issue. The control board is not functioning properly or voltage is out of range.

All Recorded Causes

Bad control board, voltage spike/drop.

Verify Before Replacing Parts

  1. Confirm the exact Lennox model family and ds1 & ds2 context before acting on a generic code description.
  2. Start with line voltage, low voltage, and board output checks in sequence so the fault is isolated cleanly — the data plate flags bad control board, voltage spike/drop.
  3. Inspect connectors, relay outputs, and any recently replaced electrical parts for mismatch or loose fit, and verify the next candidate on the list.
  4. After the correction, run the system long enough to confirm the ds1 & ds2 fault does not return under normal load.
