Apparent code size problem

...

IF (OhmCheck = FAILED) or _  	' resistor out of tolerance or
    (FlagResult <> 0) then                 ' hardware flag  
    GOSUB Houston
ENDIF

Try this for the one above:

 
IF ErrCnt > 1 or FlagResult > 0 THEN GOSUB Houston

-------------------------------------------------

...
Replace it with this one and it does not work:

IF OhmCheck = FAILED THEN
   ErrCnt = ErrCnt + 1
   IF ErrCnt = 1 then	'first time gets a pass for a recheck 
      Device = DISPLAY
      GOSUB SetCtrl
      LCDOUT $FE,1,"Chk Dckbill conn"
      LCDOUT $FE,$C0,"then retry test"
      PAUSE 1000
   ENDIF
ENDIF
IF (ErrCnt > 1) or (FlagResult <> 0) THEN 
   GOSUB Houston
ENDIF

And try this for the one above:

IF OhmCheck = FAILED or FlagResult > 0 then GOSUB Houston

And try this separately:

IF OhmCheck = FAILED THEN
    ErrCnt = ErrCnt + 1     

    IF ErrCnt = 1 then 'first time gets a pass for a recheck
        Device = DISPLAY
        GOSUB SetCtrl
        LCDOUT $FE,1,"Chk Dckbill conn"
        LCDOUT $FE,$C0,"then retry test"
        PAUSE 1000
    else
        gosub Houston 
    endif
    
ENDIF


IF FlagResult > 0 THEN GOSUB Houston

Question: Do you set ErrCnt = 0 before the program starts running, or it gets some values from somewhere else?
In your code, it seems that it must be set to zero at initial power up before coming to "IF OhmCheck = FAILED THEN" condition.

Question: FlagResult is a hardware flag. So it can be 1 or 0 only, right? If yes, then why not use IF FlagResult = 1 instead of FlagResult <> 0 ?


Also, as Jerson said, we should see Houston subroutine.

May be there is something in it that makes things messed up.
