Don’t have any good heat sources, just a few small electric space heaters which cannot keep the house warm, but it’s in the 50s inside, so not too cold. Will have to fix this tomorrow though. Thank you sir, will open the unit and try to get the flash sequence in the morning. Nope, blower...

Thanks for the reply, I will open it up tomorrow morning and take a look at the hot surface igniter. You are correct, heat is gas, but I didn't know what to check, so I tested the capacitor first. Appreciate your help.

I have an old Goodman GPG13240701A gaspack which just stopped working (was working ok this morning, but over the last couple of days it took much longer to start blowing). Now it’s only buzzing when I switch it on. It’s freezing outside and I need to fix this asap, can’t afford to replace it at...

Not sure where to find the model number, but here are some pictures. Looking at the breaker now, it’s a 20 amp, not 30 like I thought.

Let's say if I have someone rewire and replace both receptacles with 14-50, I could still keep the 6-50 plug on the compressor and use it with the 14-50 receptacle, right?

I don't have any more empty spots for a new breaker in the breaker box. There are 2 of these 6-50 receptacles and I was planning to use one for the compressor and the other for the oven.

Which receptacle would I need to use? The air compressor has a 6-50 plug already and only has 3 wires, works fine with the current receptacle. Do I have any other options to use this oven in the garage without rewiring the whole thing?

Ah, got it, so I can't use this oven with the existing receptacle. The air compressor is rated at 3.7HP and the info plate on the motor says 15amp max.

I have a 30a breaker, but don't need to run 50amps, I'll be using this for a 15amp air compressor and this 15-20 amp oven. If I replace the cable how can I wire the 4 wires to the plug pictured above, or would you wire ground only on the metal part of the receptacle (my boxes are plastic)?

The 6-50R receptacle only has 3 wires as shown on the picture below, top is ground and the other 2 are hot. It has a Romex 10/2 cable going into the breaker box. How can I add a neutral to this? I was looking to wire it like shown on the picture in this post...

It does have some features (I have not looked at them though), so I am sure there is a light inside and most likely a timer. I just want to wire it to turn on/off and maybe adjust temperature. It previously had a NEMA 10-30 plug and the white and ground wires were wired together on the neutral...

Hey everyone! I have an old oven on the garage that I plan to use for baking powder coated parts and need to wire a plug. The oven is 240V and has 4 wires (black, red, white and a bare ground wire) and I have NEMA 6-50R receptacle that only has 3 wires. I wired the black (left side), red (right...
