The pump varies from buzzing, to quiet, to intermittent clicking... but, I'm wondering if this pump even has anything to do with the heating system. Does anyone know? It might just be a condensor for the A/C, in which case I can dewire it from power, since I don't use my A/C after the coolant...

I'm wondering if the ClearVu condensor could have something to do with the furnace periodically failing to light. The heat is working for the moment, but I expect it will fail any time now, as it usually does. The ClearVu condensor is hardwired in to the furnace so I can't unplug it, but it is...

If you send me your email address (mine is [email protected]) I'll send a short .mp4 video which I can't upload on this site, showing the noise the condensor unit is making. The green light is on but it's humming pretty loudly and the fan in it is not turning. Could this be the problem?

These sound like good tips. I need to get a meter - any suggestions on which one? Will search for the circuit board, don't remember seeing it (I think I have to remove another panel which has a couple sheet metal screws). The flame either lights (as it is doing now, for probably another day or...

No, I don't, I guess I should get one. What would I measure? No, the gas either successfully flows and the flame lights, or it never flows and doesn't light.

I bought a new HSI the past year.

No, when the flames light, they stay lit, until I shut off the heat at the thermostat. I only run it for 5 - 10 minutes, manually turning the thermostat to "heat", with the fan alway set on "automatic", and then manually switching it off. Interesting about the dates. I moved in as a renter in...

Yes, the electrical cord running from the unit is heavy duty and has a good ground.

I'm a Firefighter, I can usually figure things out, but I have had a similar problem each winter. Carrier induced-combustion gas furnace Model #CNPHP3617ACAA BAA; serial # 1 808 x 34090. The heat will work a few times at the start of winter, then won't come on, and locks out. I ensure the...
