What the LED#1 Simultaneous Fast Flash / LED#2 Simultaneous Fast Flash error code actually means

When your thermostat calls for heat, your Lennox furnace uses two flashing lights to signal that it received the message and is starting up. This is completely normal and means your furnace is working as expected. No repairs or resets are needed when you see this pattern during a heating cycle.

Questions people ask about LED#1 Simultaneous Fast Flash / LED#2 Simultaneous Fast Flash

What does LED#1 Simultaneous Fast Flash / LED#2 Simultaneous Fast Flash mean on a Lennox furnace?
This LED pattern indicates normal operation. It is displayed by the integrated furnace control board the moment the thermostat sends a heating demand signal. Both LEDs flashing rapidly at the same time is confirmation that the call for heat has been received and the startup sequence is underway. No fault condition is present when this pattern appears at the beginning of a heating cycle.
Is it safe to run my Lennox furnace when both LEDs are flashing fast at the same time?
Yes, this condition is completely safe. The simultaneous fast flash simply means the furnace has received a call for heat from the thermostat and is beginning normal operation. There is no safety lockout, no component failure, and no hazard associated with this specific LED pattern.
How much does it cost to repair a Lennox furnace showing this LED pattern?
There is no repair cost associated with this LED pattern because it indicates normal operation, not a component failure. If a technician visit is needed to diagnose why a furnace is not heating despite showing this pattern, diagnostic service call fees typically range from around $75 to $150 depending on location and provider, with additional costs only if an actual fault is identified and parts are required.
Do I need to fix anything when I see this flashing pattern on my Lennox furnace?
No repair is needed. This simultaneous fast flash is a status indicator, not a fault or error code. If the furnace completes its startup and produces heat normally, the system is functioning correctly. Only if the furnace fails to produce heat after this indication should you look for a subsequent fault code that explains where the startup sequence stopped.
Will resetting my Lennox furnace clear this LED pattern?
Resetting the furnace is not necessary and will not change anything in a meaningful way. This pattern appears during every normal heating cycle and will display again the next time the thermostat calls for heat. A reset is only warranted if a separate fault code appears after this indication and the furnace fails to heat.
