 Topic: Frigid Wife or No Heater?Posted: 25 May 2015 at 3:23pm |

Darn heater just doesn't want to work. Still cold here in Montana.
1st trip out, took about 30 trys for the furnace to kick on and produce heat, now on the second trip no heat at all, just the fan. Fan immediately comes on as it should, however no ignition....no clicking (no ignition), no flame. So, furnace times out and shuts off. Any thoughts? Could it be as simple as needing a new igniter or deeper issue? This is a 2013 R178, only used the heater a 1/2 dozen times. Worked fine last year Thanks everyone!

Are you sure you have propane?
Did you purge the lines by lighting a stove burner first? Make sure the burner intake and exhaust have not been invaded by critters. |

furpod,
Thanks for the reply. Full tank. Clear intake. Stove and frig work fine. Ran them both before trying the furnace. Electrode not firing, so guessing it's either bad or different problem .....limit switch, gas valve ? |

Our 2010 174 furnace doesn't want to start when I turn on the gas, so I turn all the burners on and start the hot water heater on and it seems to clear the air in the lines at the rear where the furnace is.

Thanks everyone....will do some more testing. Still under warranty, just not sure if there is a service center close.
