David Fap User ID: 28627496 Canada 12/01/2012 09:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If its a gas furnace it sounds like then thermocouple is no good. Luckily they are cheap and easy to replace. The thermocouple will only allow the Gas valve to stay open only if flame is detected, thus preventing raw gas from flooding in should the flame go out. Get a thermocouple at Home Depot, google your furnqce brqnd for the right type but there are plenty of generic models that will fit, just make sure you get one long enough. Cost is around twenty or thirty dollars. |
BRIEF User ID: 28454476 United States 12/01/2012 09:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Heater is acting erratically ... Main burner comes on runs for a few seconds then shuts off then blower kicks on immediately after burner shuts down. It's happening repeatedly ... I installed a new circuit board and thermostat but the problem still persists !! It's fn cold and I'm tired Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1466889 If it's fuel oil you need to clean the injectors...otherwise I need more info... I never forgive and I never forget I am a licensed firearm holder. I will, under protection of law, use lethal force if attacked. |

Quoting: David Fap Actually he said the main burner comes on for a few seconds then cuts out so it's not a thermal couple The thermal couple keeps the pilot lit if there is no pilot then the burner cant light Most furnaces today do not have pilots they have electronic ignition Last Edited by myeyesropenow42 on 12/01/2012 09:20 PM |

Actually now that you say that I was thinking that when I saw it because most would simply say something about helping with a furnace. He never responded back anyway so I guess I will be bored some more lol |

The problem is definitely a flame sensing problem if its gas or if oil it could be a oil/air mixure problem, a cad cell or primary control |

Try User ID: 783567 Canada 12/02/2012 01:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If its fuel oil, clean the light sensor. It looks like a button covered in black soot. It may not see the light from the flame. Toothbrush. will have to open area, pull back motor, its by the spray valve. Generally the blower wouldn't be involved though so good skill. P.S. Air in line will cause immediate shut down, you would have to bleed from left side of motor. Again the blower shouldn't be involved. This is for educational purposes only and should not be considered as end all be all answers. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 17099271 United States 12/02/2012 12:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Can you believe all of that craziness was simply caused my the thermostat wiring... Red and white wires attached to the circuit board were bare copper, someone stripped 'em down too much ...and they Touched/untouched eachother ... Fml. I don't know how the hell I over looked something obvious like that. new circuit board thermostat all for nothing ... |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 28912721 United States 12/02/2012 12:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No led light on the circuit board. It's natural gas ... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1466889 The furnace just ran for about 5 minutes and went back to cycling off and on...maybe I'll order a new flame sensor. Bryant heater Is it one of the new efficient furnaces? Does it have drains on it for water runoff? |
