Coleman-Mach thermostat shows GAS or flashing Elec assist

Use this when a Coleman-Mach thermostat indicates backup gas heat is assisting or electric heat is temporarily locked out after repeated unmet heat calls.

Owner-safe checklist

  • Treat GAS or flashing Elec as backup heat behavior described by the thermostat manual.
  • Record outdoor temperature, heat mode, zone, and how long the heat call has been running.
  • Wait through the manual-described lockout period if the coach remains safe and warm enough.
  • Do not change upper control-board settings or heat wiring.
