Default Cold Rheem

Yes, that's about where I am, in the troubleshooting process.

One other person suggested to pull the burners, and give them a good
cleaning out. In case the fire isn't hot enough (on the very farthest burner
away from the gas valve). Might not be hot enough to be sensed.

However, it's looking more and more like time to change the board. Maybe a
new board will work better. I've got an OEM board from one parts house, and
then J'stone has an aftermarket board which is about 1/3 cheaper. Do you
only do OEM boards? I figure in this case, the aftermarket board might last
a while. This particular HO has next to no money.

This is Turtle.

I got into this years back on the 1988 to 2000 Rheem gas furnaces and
depending
on the model you have , I saw 4 of them do the samething and end up calling
Rheem tech support for nothing would stick to regular trouble shooting
thinking
and they ended up call all 4 as then and but 3 later. They said change the
flame
sencer and if it did not work . Change the relay board. Rheem tech support
would
not say why this was the cure.
