Re: [a/s] HEATER PROBLEM



My blower came on, but no clicky-clicky (igniter spark) and the blower
immediately shut down.  Turned out to be the "ignition module" i.e. the circuit
board ... new one cost $98 but is now guaranteed for several years.  The
ignition electrode was also in crappy shape and was replaced.  Sail switch was
fine.

Just came back from several days at 7000 feet in Wyoming, with a couple of extra
overnight stops due to hitting blizzard conditions coming down the back side of
the Rockies (Meeker, CO etc).  Was VERY glad I had the furnace fixed before
starting out!

Oh yes, postscript to previous post on this subject, the furnace finally did
work after all, it took maybe ten tries to purge the gas line so it would light.
