Can you explain this in a few more sentences ?
What did you just install?
Read this recent thread on the same AGS error on a new heater install..
Brand New MasterTemp 400 Error AGS
Just fired up my new Mastertemp. Immediately throwing AGS error. I checking the troubleshooting guide. At first was running the pump at 1200 rpm, bypass fully open. Error AGS. Tried 1900 rpm. Error AGS. Tried 2200 rpm. Error AGS. Heater is wired for 220. It's connected to a 15 amp breaker...

I installed an in ground pool with a heater at the end of last season the heater started a few times but never stayed on it is a Mastertemp 125 and it kept giving me an error message PS AGS etc and finally the AGS was the ongoing issue. The pool supplier sent me a replacement switch over the winter and I finally filled the pool. Above skimmers and cranked it up after it was clean installed the part and now still AGS. Further more Pentair and Royal pools could not tell me if the AGS or the High Limit switch is on top or bottom because I felt they were in the wrong spots since I received the unit .Can you explain this in a few more sentences ?

AGS errors are usually caused by a bad internal bypass. Too much water is bypassing the heat exchanger internally. What water that is going through is coming out too hot and tripping the AGS switch in the manifold.
- Remove the leads from the AGS sensor and connect them together. Temp only for the test.
- Then, check the continuity of the sensor. It should be closed.
- Start the heater. If the sensor opens, immediately turn off the heater.
- If the sensor opens, it might be a bad sensor or the water is overheating.
- To test the sensor, put it in hot water to see where it actually opens.
- If the sensor does not open and the heater shuts off with an AGS light, the board is bad.
I will send pictures today had an HVAC guy over no clue cost me $125 still no heat my manifold looks different . How do you purge gas line of airHave you purged all the air from the gas line?
Does you manifold look like this?
My high limit switch and AGS are on same side R side facing the unit. Water pressure switch is located in similar position as photoHave you purged all the air from the gas line?
Does you manifold look like this?

Post pics of your manifold.
I am not sure the location of the AGS or HLS matters.
Have you followed the wires from the sensors to see where they are connected on the board?

This is my pic of the pentair mastertemp 125 with ongoing issue of err AGS . It has never even had warm air coming out exhaust
According to the manual, the AGS should be the lower sensor on the right side of the manifold (red/pink wires). If the heater has never fired, the AGS would not trip as it opens on heat (140 degrees F). Check that there is no break or rodent damage to the wiring. Check the continuity of the switch itself with an ohm meter.
I finally have some fire however red service light will not go off and water gets warm and heater will run for a while and eventually shut off now it seems I am getting a PS warning after service light stays on for fairly long period. I called pool company and they put me on a waiting list. I am desperate I also left a message for Royal Pools
Pool heats up however temp on heater is not changing and red service light is still on
heater is working and seems to stay on till pump goes to to low and is heating pool nicely however red service light stays on the entire time
