Question???

[chuck will]

The past couple of chilly evenings I noticed the heater motor coming on
but no heat. I went to the Thermostat and turned it up and re adjusted
the on/off switch and it came on and so did the heat. Apparently there
must be something gone amiss with the unit. Does anybody have any
ideas? It works ok after you get up and go to the back and reset
everything. Chuck Lompoc, CA

Mine did that right before the thermostat burned out. Then, when I still
couldn't get the Suburban furnace to come on, I discovered that the ic
board was toast.

I don't know if the thermostat burning out had anything to do with it, but
that ic board was a hunderd bucks. The thermostat was only $25. It might
be worth changing it out early just in case.

Good Luck

I don't know if you have the Sol Aire, but when mine got cold it wouldn't
work. Then when it got warmer it worked. When I took out the furnace and
lubed the motor, I also removed the assembly where the flame goes in, and
I cleaned and checked the ceramic ignitor. It was all cruded up, and I
think it works better now. Had to replace the bolts when I took them out
as they were really rusted and one broke off. But I think it is now
better.

What ever happened to the idea of the on line BS session? I see ICQ is
fairly simple to down load the soft ware and you can then talk back and
forth. Chuck
