Re: help with my Atwood heater please asap
ok so here is a update on my furnace. Learned a ton during this process but did install a new dinosaur board .....which is the same one that was currently in the trailer but it fired right up and has been running great. No idea why the other dinosaur board had failed but it did. So all is well now and thank everyone for the help. -Nick425Views0likes0CommentsRe: help with my Atwood heater please asap
so after talking to atwood and now dinosaur they are both pointing at the board. So being I am in a bit of a rush I have a board coming. I suppose I have basically checked just about everything else. Dinosaur was going to have me test a couple things but I should prob just order a board that it has failed425Views0likes0CommentsRe: help with my Atwood heater please asap
exactly which is why I changed the electrode because its also the flame sensor. I agree it doesn't seem to be sensing flame but I have it all adjusted to spec and nothing changed from when I put the new one in. I will talk to the circuit board manufacturer in about 30 min425Views0likes0CommentsRe: help with my Atwood heater please asap
yes I did. I actually did it on the original one too. I figure I would replace anyways being they say its a regular maint item. Talked to atwood this morning and they are now pointing me at the board but I will talk to dinosaur here pretty soon425Views0likes0CommentsRe: help with my Atwood heater please asap
I realize that its expensive and I have tested most everything. Electrode is cheap and so is a regulator really, and I don't mind replacing being they are a maint item anyways. I have not checked the current on igniter being the flame fires off the first time no problem I figure that would be fine426Views0likes0CommentsRe: help with my Atwood heater please asap
ok guys so ive worked on It for a couple hours now. Replaced the regulator which I didn't mind doing anyways. Smell propane and it fires up then shuts down the same as it was. pulled the whole heating element out and cleaned burner checked orifice and all that. Measured and set electrode close to burner like atwood has told me. Still same result. im at a total loss. what do I do next? I have no clue but to maybe buy a board. im going to call atwood again tomorrow and see what my next step is. Thanks184Views0likes0CommentsRe: help with my Atwood heater please asap
thanks again for the help guys. Talked to atwood and they recommend I removed the burner assembly and make sure the electrode is 1/4 inch from burner I guess. I had just replaced the electrode by itself and never removed the whole burner assembly. I will take a look at that and also may just replace the regulator for the hell of it. Hopefully the burner assembly isn't too hard to remove. He made it sound pretty simple183Views0likes0Comments
