Atwood 2334 DCLP

A friend at the park has an Atwood 2334 DCLP Furnace. While it is running the motor will slow down. Not slow enough to drop the sail switch out but slow enough that it will not burn clean. Heavy smoke.
Furnace has a fan control board along with the ignition board. Voltage is 13.2 with park power. Any ideas on where to look? is this unit suppose to have two speeds on the motor? Thanks Gary

  • Again Thank for all your help. Great information. This should work out great. Gary
  • Fan speed and which gas valve is used are critical

    Low fan and high btu gas valve.........Smoking/Sooting (as you are aware)
    High fan and low btu gas valve.........Lean/HOT flame (if it lit/stayed lit) overfiring..furnace trip

    White wire (6 pin connector on Speed control board----#6 position) is 10V power to motor for Low Speed (RED wire thru the power switch/circuit breaker is fan 12V high speed)

    Low but gas valve....Brown wire is power (6 pin connector on speed control board----position #1)

    High btu gas valves.....Red wire is power (6 pin connector on IGNITION board----position #4) Only Pins 1,3 & 4 are used

  • Hey OB, just a after-though, would there be a simple way to make this a one speed unit by moving wires around? I have not had time to get back with my friend to check out the board. Will see what he wants to do tomorrow. Thanks again Gary
  • Thanks OB Your information was useful. Gave me something to work on. Now I have to figure out why the board is not changing the gas valves. Thanks Gary
  • Atwood 2334 DCLP........is a 2 stage DC operated furnace using LP fuel

    It has 2 gas valves....23K btu and a 34K btu
    Fan motor is also 2 speed..high speed for higher btu gas valve (34K btu) and low speed for the lower btu gas valve (23K btu)

    Speed control module is NOT swapping gas valves when fan speed swaps thus the smoking----low air to fuel ratio
