IF (not 1F) is Lockout
Ignition lock out, means that the heater had three separate attempts to fire up, to have ignition. After three attempts, with no ignition of main burners, you will get the fault code. You clear this by cycling the power off and then back on. You may need to do this 2 or 3 times. Some times air is in the main gas supply line?
Or, Because we are human, we tend to make mistakes, and may overlook the obvious... is the gas valve in the on position? , and is the gas shut off valve on the supply line, open?
if the obvious is all good, then continue with your troubleshooting, next up would be to check the hot surface igniter. or plugged orifice. Especially the most Left one - closest to igniter.

The code you are referring to is actually IF, not 1F. It stands for ignition failure.
If the control exceeds the maximum number of ignition retries or recycles the heater will shut down and go into lockout. Automatic reset is 60 minutes.

SOURCE: Error code LO

Is the heater installed indoors?? if so you'll need a vent pressure orifice kit.
if not check your water press. (below 18 PSI on filter) Place filter on "recir" if it fires and stays on . it's the pressure.
check to see if all connections a set tight hi-ltd switch wire harness etc.

SOURCE: Pool Heater with communication (CE) Error

Code "CE" stands for communication error and describes a fault between the mother board and the display. I doubt it's the relay causing it though...

SOURCE: Our Hayward gas heater keeps giving us a H5 error

Could the Error code be HS? That is high temperature limit. Perhaps you' don't have enough flow, allowing the heater to heat the water to a temperature higher, than the thermostat setting. Make sure your bypass valve is closed, allowing full flow through the heater. Check your filter pressure differential , and skimmer baskets.
You didn't give your model number, and there are many models. You can go the Hayward website below and select your exact model number and download the manual. The manual will explain each error code.

Code 1F

"IF" or" Ignition failure", simply means you heater didn't fire. Be sure your gas is on,and if on propane be sure there is at least 30% in the tank (and the valve is open).Also check whether your "Glow plug" ignitor Glows, or your spark ignitor sparks (depending on which kind you have).

What does the service symbol 1F referring to? The gas is on, but the heater does not ignite. After a few minutes, the symbol 1F appears on the screen.

It means Ignition Failure. They heater went thru its startup cycle, and when the gas valve opened, the heater did not sense a flame. The whole routine begins again. After about 3 attempts at this, the heater will flash IF and then go into a lockout situation. This is a safety feature of this heater.

If the heater is cycling on and off continuously the problem may be a dirty filter. Try backwashing and rinsing the filter before anything else.

H250 inground pool heater turns on 5 seconds shuts off flsahing 1f

This is a code for ignition falure. If you are getting a pilot then it means your Ignition module is not sensing the flame and shuting the gas down. This could be pilot wire burnt and grounding or a pilot flame not reaching the sensor or a bad ignition module. This is the expensive part so look into the other things first. Good luck.
