The pressure switch monitors the negative pressure (water column) created by the inducer motor to confirm proper venting before allowing the ignition sequence to proceed. When this switch fails or sticks open, the control board cannot verify safe draft conditions and will lock out the system — typically displaying a pressure switch fault code and preventing any heat output.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low pressure switch | OEM part number 312926-258 | Factory-calibrated W.C.
