White-Rodgers isn't very helpful with older products, are they? But, this might
be a workaround. I went to their site,
searched for an equivalent current product and got the sheet for that:
http://www.white-rodgers.com/pdfs/instruction_sheets/0037-6265.pdf
According to this, three flashes indicates that the pressure switch is stuck
open, so you might look at that, and check
the wiring between the controller and the switch.
