Off Topic Furnace Question ??
Hi
I have the Keeprite 075 condensing gas furnace. Only about 10 years old. Honeywell pro 8000 thermostat. NUGM100EHB1 is the furnace. My question is what happened all of a sudden yesterday when I think I had a bit too much humidity in the air, why did the furnace fail? Now when there is a call for heat on the thermostat, what happens is both blowers run only. The exhaust blower venting out runs immediately on start up, the main house blower starts immediately on start up. But no clicking from the honeywell smart valve, no sparking or ignighting beginning or trying. Nothing else is happenening. No gas is going through the valve, no obstructions in either intake or exhaust piping. I just vacuumed everything out, I changed thermostates to the old one, same thing happens. I suspect either the motherboard which has no lights to blink to show alarms, or the gas valve which I had to replace couple years ago, But back then at least the igniters would light up and shut off immediately, told me it was a gas valve issue so replaced that and worked. All else looks clean and I smacked as many relays as I could see, checked all the tubes to see if connections are ok and seems ok. Even when thermostat is turned off, disconnected, when I turn the furnace on it only immediately starts up the both blowers and nothing else, no clicking, no safeties going on and off, no nothing. Anyone here have a suggestion other than hiring an HVAC contracting firm to come in and give me estimates? I know a board is about 50 bucks, easy to replace, gas valve is about 150 easy to replace, what ever sensor should be cheap and easy to replace. Any suggestions as to what to try next? Thanks Hams, I know this is off topic, but I have gotten good advice from this group before and there are no furnace newsgroups of any kind on my server. Thanks for any advice or tips or links 73 |
