Heil keep right on running
I'm working (again) on a Heil. It's about 80K, upflow model. Older one, a 70
or 80 percenter. Customer's complaint, keeps on running. House gets hot, and they have to turn it off at the swtich on the side of the furnace. He's changed the you-know-what a couple times. I pulled a wire for the YKW. So, the fellow called me, and it's running right along. Wants to know if he should change the YKW again. No, don't do that. Last time it happened, I got him to call me right over. I pulled the main cover, and tapped ont he box with the electric. Went right out. Aha! Relay isn't releasing. Replace the relay. And a couple weeks later, it's happening again. What's the odds of a bad relay a couple months later? Not all that much. what's the next couple things to check? Sticky gas valve would cause that problem. Any other common problems? -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org www.mormons.com |

Hey, I typed an answer to your comment. And then seconds later, I remember
something more profound. There was a very drunken man on a public bus. A very fat, and ugly woman said with a sneer "You're drunk!". The man replied "you're fat and ugly!" The lady repeated "you're drunk". The man repeated "you're fat and ugly". The lady repeated. The man returned with a big smile "But I'll be sober in the morning!". My answer to you is that I will learn how to fix Heils. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org www.mormons.com "HeatMan" wrote in message ... Flaming is one thing.

I'll agree with that. Education and explaination work on one of them. The
other one is usually incurable, except for the healing salve of the Gospel of Christ. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org www.mormons.com "HeatMan" wrote in message ...

Hi Stormin, hope you are having a nice day On 09-Oct-04 At About 15:27:09, Stormin Mormon wrote to All Subject: Heil keep right on running SM From: "Stormin Mormon" SM Back from the customer's house. The furnace runs great by removing or SM replacing the heat wire. Lights up, and goes right out. So, the SM conclusion is either bad wire, or bad T-stat. I pulled the wire SM myself, and checked that. Not shorted. Conclusion is that the YKW is SM defective. Of course it isn't shorted. can you tell me how I know this? you really shouldn't mess with things you don't know about. -= HvacTech2 =- ...
