Amana Furnace Code EEC

Safety fault

The gas valve is energized when it should be off. The control shuts the furnace down because gas could be flowing when it should not.

Manual wording: “Gas valve is energized when it should be off.

Documented for: Amana AMVC96, ACVC96, AMVM97, ACVM97, AM9S80, AC9S80, AR9S80, AD9S80, AR9T96, AD9T96 (seven-segment display controls)

Likely causes, most common first

  1. Miswired gas valve circuit
  2. Shorted gas valve wiring

What you can safely check yourself

  • Turn the furnace off at its power switch and leave it off until a technician arrives

When to call a technician

Any code that means the gas valve may be powered when it should not be is an immediate service call.

A Amana furnace throwing this code repeatedly has a reason — clearing the code without fixing the cause just hides it.
