Trane Furnace Error Codes

 

Trane furnaces use a two-digit code system to indicate an error. These codes can be found on the furnace's control panel and can usually be cleared by turning the system off and then back on again.

 

Here's a table of some common Trane furnace error codes, their light patterns, meanings and potential issues:
