Full Diagnosis

Reduced Airflow (Blower Speed). The blower is running at a reduced speed to prevent damage.

All Recorded Causes

High static pressure, dirty filter, blocked ducts.

Verify Before Replacing Parts

  1. Confirm the exact Lennox model family and e-codes context before acting on a generic code description.
  2. Verify airflow first, then confirm operating pressures and temperature relationship before adjusting charge, since high static pressure, dirty filter, blocked ducts.
  3. Look for restrictions, iced coils, or dirty heat-transfer surfaces that can mimic a charge problem, and separately confirm the next candidate on the list.
  4. After the correction, run the system long enough to confirm the e-codes fault does not return under normal load.
