Johnyb - I have the same unit as you do and I do not see anywhere where there are LED's in the gray air box in the rear.  Do you have a photo that you can post?  I'm very interested why you have them and I do not.  I have looked everywhere in my manual and nothing is said about those LED's.  Roger

If mine has them, I have never seen them.  I'll take a quick look over the weekend.  It'll be interesting what they are intended to do.

Thanks for the pics.  Mine doesn't have that.  I too wonder, how old is your e1400?  I'm on my 2nd year too.

The lights go on when air is flowing through a open solinoids, so the top light goes on when air is flowing through the primary, and the bottom goes on when air flows through the high burn.

My controller gives me that same information.  I wonder why they felt they needed a redundant set up on yours?  Perhaps that's why they no longer put the LEDs on the gray box.  Of course, I'm assuming that your e1400 controller indicates when it's in low/high burn.  Roger

Yes the controller does too, I was thinking the LEDs are to help in any of blocks up because they go be air flow

Johnyb - That makes sense.  But, I check mine monthly to be sure nothing is blocked.  If I feel there is too much build up I simply clean it out.  Roger
