Furnace Starting and then Stopping Solved!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 жов 2019
- Winter is coming and my heater was not working. It would start up but the heat would never come on and it would shut down after about a minute. Turns out it was a plugged pressure switch hose. It cost nothing to fix and I just told you the solution so you don't really have to watch the video I guess. But take a look at where the issue was and hopefully, it is as easy as this for you to fix. Sorry about the wobbly camera...it was a tight location.

If the furnace is lighting but then stopping after about 4 seconds it might be the flame sensor: ua-cam.com/video/aj-SXJheALs/v-deo.html
Excellent video. It helped solve the on, off, on, etc issue. I first cleaned it the sensor which did have carbon build up. But I found the sensor was loose from the insulator. Went and bought a new one, and did not work correct at first. To anyone doing this for the first time, watch for orientation of how the sensor was positioned (especially if you have one that has a bend to it) when you take it out. After I took it out I found it was not positioned right in to the burner. Sensor cost $32, but would have likely been $200+ if I made a service call.
So glad I found this video. There was condensation in the tube so I blew it out and now my furnace works again. Thank you so much!
That is just wonderful.
Thanks for the tip. You’re a life saver. You’re smarter than you think 😉Haven’t tried it yet but going to do it ASAP. My little ones need HEAT!
I hope it helps.
Duuuude, you just saved me
I did this and it worked!!!
Thanks so much for the video.
God only knows how much I would have been charged to fix it.
That made it worth the time to film.
Mr. You are a supper smart person. who on earth would know something stuck there?
It was a process of elimination. I went from what didn't work to what did and found the issue.
Wait, I thought swearing was the first step? ;)
Congrats on a successful repair!
Great video, my furnace had the same problem. It took me so much longer to find than I'm proud of, but the furnace is working great now!
Mine is still chugging along as well.
Great job and help, 😊
Glad it worked for you.
And the wife said (her own version of) “thank you” lol
Nice!
Yeah it pays off to learn how to do these things yourself, not only for savings but just for the sake of knowing. Good tip
The first time I heard it kick in this season I was pleased again.
Dude!!! We love you! We blew thru tube and it worked!! And didn't cost a thing!! YAHOOOO!!!
Sweet! I like to think of the money i saved and then I go on Amazon and buy silly things.
I'm 59 y/o and pushed a pencil or banged on a PC (yes, I said PC cause I'm that old)...mr. Cryptid your video saved me thousands...can't thank u enough. Blessings!!
Thanks a lot. You just save me a bunch of money.👍😁
Sweet!
Until I saw your video, I had completely forgotten about this tube on the Draft Induction Motor.
We had trouble with this one before.
This time it was really clogged.
Nothing a paperclip couldn't handle, but I did employ my Shop Vac to suck the rust out.
So glad it worked for you.
This fixed mine!! Was some ash in there. I used a tooth pick to unclog. Mine ran for 30 seconds then shut off. Cleaned the port to the inducer and works perfect.
Wonderful!
Thank you brother, saved me too!!! 🙏
I felt such a sense of relief that I wanted to share it.
I cleaned the flame sensor and that didn't solve the problem, but I found that nozzle plugged, as you did. Pushed a tiny allen wrench through the clog, and now it works. Thanks!
You just saved a ton of money. Cool.
great video, thank you
I hope it helped.
I did it’s work thanks
Awesome!
I was so satisfied when it worked for me.
That is an inducer motor which draws air to create a vacuum and closeprexsure switch, it doesn't blow air.
Thank you, Dave. These are the comments I love to get.
My furnace blows cold air and then shuts off after 2 mins. It does this whether its on auto or on. What do I need to do please. this just started.
It could be a flame sensor issue. ua-cam.com/video/aj-SXJheALs/v-deo.html But, you might want to have it looked at by a professional if this does not work. I hope it does.
my gas furnace starts up like it should and runs just until the glow plug igniter shuts down when it shuts down, so does the gas to the burner. they both shut down at the same time .i was hoping someone would know the cause my gas furnace starts up like it should and runs just until the glow plug igniter shuts down when it shuts down, so does the gas to the burner. they both shut down at the same time .i was hoping someone would know the cause
I tried pulling my hose out, but it's really stuck on there. Any tips to remove the hose???
You can use a needlenose pliar to slowly work the hose off. I f that does not work you might consider a light and controlled shot of a lubricant. I use WD-40 for everything. But maybe use a Q-tip to apply it so you don't get flammable gunk everywhere. Too much might corrode the hose so be sparing.
what did you use to clean the guk in the hole again ?
I used the smallest screwdriver on my Leatherman Tool. A straightened paper clip would have worked just as well.
My furnace is brand new. It will run and decide to use heat pump or gas. After a while it will shut off and seconds later it will go back on with a loud jet engine sound. Any ideas?
If it is new I suggest contacting the company that installed it. I had a heater like that years ago and it made a similar sound but it was due to a leak. Please get yours checked out.
@@LordCryptid I plan on it thanks
@@LordCryptid According to the company that installed the system, it works on heat pump (electric) and when/if the system deems necessary it shuts off and then goes to propane. I have never had a heat pump before so does that sound correct? The installer said even though it ran on electric for 40 - 50 minutes it was still cheaper than 100% propane.
@@BeaverDaveECV This is a new one to me as well. Keep me posted as to how well it works and the savings you find.
Hi Jim will you be at the convention this year?
Michigan or Ohio? Michigan for certain.
Did everything now my ignighter is not coming on?

Hey nice, video, I just wanted to ask u if there will be new video about any battle thanks :)
We start the elective right after Christmas break. The first week of January I should have some form of the class running,
I feel like everyone commenting is the same person as me... a comment section of my closest potential friends. We have so much in common.

It may be the flame sensor: ua-cam.com/video/aj-SXJheALs/v-deo.html
