What does F01 mean?
The F01 error code on your Goodman furnace indicates an 'Ignition Lockout'. This means the furnace attempted to light the burners multiple times but failed. After several failed attempts, the furnace control board locks out the system as a safety measure. This lockout prevents the continuous flow of gas into the combustion chamber, which could create a dangerous situation. The system affected is primarily the gas ignition system, including the gas valve, igniter, flame sensor, and the furnace control board itself. A furnace that cannot ignite properly will not provide heat, and more importantly, could leak unburnt gas into your home.
