Usually minor Your air handler is reporting: Airflow readout (A08 = 800 CFM). This code is usually informational or minor. The safe checks below often clear it; call us if it keeps showing up.

Safe things you can check yourself

Check the thermostat: right mode (Heat or Cool), set a few degrees past room temperature, and fresh batteries if it uses them.
Make sure the unit has power: its on/off switch (often looks like a light switch near the unit) is ON and the breaker in the electrical panel is not tripped.
Look at the air filter. If it is grey and clogged, replace it; a blocked filter causes many shutdowns.
