Furnace won't cycle after initial run
I have a 2006 Glendale Golden Falcon Easy Rider with an Atwood Hydro-Flame 8531 IV that started acting up. It started happening after our trailer flooded (long story) and we came home to an inch of water in the living area and the furnace fan was running even though it was turned off... weird but after drying the trailer for a week I tested the furnace and it seemed to run fine but won't cycle after the initial cycle when it's turned on.
Here's the sequence of events:
- The furnace will start up and ignite just fine when it's turned on
- When the thermostat reaches the set temp the furnace will shut off
- At this point when the room temp drops below the thermostat set temp the furnace will not go through another ignition cycle and just wouldn't do anything even when turning off and on again or when adjusting the thermostat.
-Some time later (not sure exactly how long) It'll fire up, heat the room to set temp, shut off when set temp is reached and will re-cycle again when the room temp drops below the set temp as designed and will operate normally.
Any idea what might cause this issue?
