broken vaginalsitila Usually a stuck switch in the motor itself. I would take the motor out (usually really easy job- Make sure that power to motor is off!!) Take it to your local motor shop and usually it will cost anywhere from 25 to 75 bucks to repair, as opposed to the 150 to 300 bucks for a repairman to do it. I used to own a laundromat and did this on a weekly basis. If the weather is to cold to have it out of service for long ask the motor shop if they could possibly fix it at once. For a few bucks more they'll probably do it.

Why does my Furnace run continuously after flame is out?

It should not run continuously. Typically, the fan (sometimes called a blower) will continue to run for a minute or so after the flame is out. This does not consume much energy; it does flush the residual heated air from the ducts. Make sure the fan is set to "AUTO" on the thermostat, to ensure proper cycling.


Is blast furnace a batch furnace?

A blast furnace runs continuously, and input materials are continually dumped in at the top to make their way down through the furnace. Shutting down a blast furnace for relining or other work is a major event in its life.


What are the gas combustion sequence process?

what is the sequence to a gas furnace ? The sequence how a gas furnace works normally is : thermostat calls for heat, blower comes on for a few seconds and is shut off, gas valve opens and an igniter lites up and burners come on giving heat to the heat exchanger. When a certain temperature is reached depending on the make of the furnace normally around 120f blower comes on. When temp. is satisfied the gas valve closes and burners go off. Blower stays on until the high limit cools off to around 80f. Next cycle will go again when the thermostat calls for heat. For any work on a gas furnace a qualified technician is recommended.


Why does the blower keep coming on when the Central Air and heater is turned off?

There could be any number of reasons for this. Perhaps, depending on your make and model of furnace/and stat, perhaps the "fan" terminal is energized to circulate the air. That is a simple programming issue. Another would be a short between (normally) the red and green low voltage wires (where red=24v and green is "Fan" (G) terminal at the furnace. Another would perhaps be a problem with the circuit board at the furnace. If you have an older furnace, where there is (normally a honeywell "silver/galvanized enclosure box mounted normally above the gas valve and attached to the furnace) where there is an insertion type combination fan limit switch (you should be able to remove the honeywel coer using just your fingers and find a wheel/dial underneath), this part could be "going out" and would require replacement. If the fan comes on after about 5 minutes after shutting down after a call for heat, perhaps not all of the heat was removed from the furnace and warms up the comb. fan/limit switch again which in turn cycles the blower motor. This too would be a sensitive comb. fan/limit switch and requires replacement. If you have a circuit board, I would try removing all of the 24 volt wires from the (r,g,y,w,c) terminals, just to eliminate any possibility of the stat, or stat wire to be the problem. make sure to put the blower door back in place to ensure the "blower door safety" switch is "closed".


What might cause a furnace blower to not work when set on auto?

A common problem is this situation is the thermostat itself, though it also depends on the make and model. A proper 'diagnosis' would be found by a professional, especially if it's been awhile since the unit has been serviced.


What to do if the furnace or air conditioner won't turn on?

Check breakers first. Then check to see if there is a disconnect switch on furnace (usually a 2" x 4" silver box attached to furnace) and see if fuse is blown or switch is off. Also if you have had your blower door off there is a safety switch for door. Make sure door is secure. There are multiple reasons that it might not come on but this can narrow it down a bit


Make a sentence with the word furnace?

Furnace is an enclosed chamber in which heat is produced


How do you make bedrock in a furnace on minecraft?

Sorry, but it is impossible to make bedrock in a furnace without using some sort of mod.


Is the blower motor resistor accessed from the engine compartment or the passenger compartment?

The year, make and model info would help but in most cases the blower motor resistor can be found close to the heat blower motor. So locate the blower motor and the resistor should be very close to it.


How do you change the fan on a comfort maker furnace?

Turn off power at breaker. Take off doors. Remove screws from board and allow to hang out of the way. Remove screws from squirrel cage assembly and slide whole cage assembly forward out of furnace, Remove plug from blower motor (if there is one, if not it may be necessary to cut wires). With assembly on floor remove blower motor bracket screws, replace motor with OEM only, make sure it is balanced and reverse process.


What would make your air condition and heat blow out hot and cold only when it wants to Some times the blower moter does not come on. It is a 2001 deville.?

the blower motor has gone bad


Is the heater resister module in front of the radiator?

The year, make and model info would help but generally the heater blower motor resister is located close by the heater blower motor.
