Goodman Gas Furnace Igniter replaced no heat service call

[@skyym3629]

I have always been a DIY individual and that is what got me into the HVAC industry over 30 years ago. I am still a DIY guy when it comes to anything that I own. We are all DIY guys or we wouldn't ever learn how things work and operate properly and are able to fix it without calling someone who takes a paycheck or two for fixing something that should only cost a C note or two. God bless bro.

[@dogman8436]

Where I live so-called HVAC techs in big service companies don’t know or care to diagnose furnaces. If 10 years old, “You need a new furnace” is all they know how to do. The big companies may have one real tech that they call in when they have to fix a furnace they installed less than 10 years earlier. DIY with knowledge gained from people like this gentleman is the way to go if you are not a multi-millionaire. OR, find a small service provider where the owner diagnoses and explains your problem. If they check out OK on a local forum like yelp they are usually as honest as this gentleman here. THANK YOU!

[@danielbutler3673]

I started out as a DIY. What made me different is that when I needed to do something I was not familiar with I would study the problem, read the directions and ask questions. Yes, my first time doing something took longer, but my goal was to do it right the first time. I agree that too many Do it yourselfers don't know what they are doing. However I learned how to do a lot of different things because I wanted to be able to work. My wide area of experience made me valuable to the company that I worked for. Now that I am on my own I am not dependent on one trade. Because I think outside the box I often find solutions to problems that some "professionals " miss. I think your issue is not with all DIY. Just the ones who try to do more than they are capable of.

Thanks for the video. Now that I'm retired (not HVAC) I do everything but lay pipe. I am a happy and successful DIYer with no call-backs, and a hero to my grand kids But I won't hire myself out to others. I take too much time to study and prepare for each project, and I go slow.

I enjoy these videos very much and learning or seeing things I haven’t ran into myself. I appreciate the time they take to make the videos.

[@Vintageguy73]

At one time I had five rental units with gas packs. I would do most of my own HVAC work because I simply could not afford a $200-$300. service call to replace a cap, blower motor, limit switch, pressure switch etc. Then the local HVAC supply refused by business so I had to buy parts online. Usually less expensive but two day wait. Finally I was threatened by a tech that told me all he had to do was call an 1-800 number, report me and I would be fined $10,000 per unit I worked on. I told him to do whatever he thought was right. Thanks for the videos, I enjoy watching the mistakes the "pro's" make.

[@lancerudy9934]

Nice way to test to for main heat. I have done that a weeks ago. Thank for all your great videos!

[@jamesgreen1737]

I'm a old retired tech and Stationary Engineer. The flame rod when heated produces a very small amount of current in the low micro amps. James Green Ps I'm always watching shows such as yours because I'm still open to learn. Keep up the good work.

[@Rottymaster]

If the micro amps on the ignitor are not compatible with the original board it will fail at any given time.

[@sknight0391]

Thank you for not letting that furnace turn off hot. It drives me crazy when i see guys do that. All it takes is once and you can prematurely crack that heat exchanger. Good fix as always and going that extra mile to clean the flame sensor while you were at it. And pulling the junk out of the blower 👍 Happy New Year Ted 🎉🎉🎉

Excellent video. When I worked for the electric company I worked every Thanksgiving and sometimes on Christmas. You are an excellent company to work on Holidays; hard to find good companies these days. I did a service call a while back that the only problem was dead batteries in the T-stat. Lots of blank looks when I said to change the batteries every year. Thanks for the video's.

[@jlwhitt77]

The infamous clicks. I've been in the trade for nearly 25 years. The first thing my mentor taught me about control board furnaces was listen for the clicks and and the sequence of them. I've been running my own business on the side now for about 7 months. Going full time at it this spring. Enjoy your videos even though I've been doing it for so long. I still learn something on occasion.

[@throttlebottle5906]

secondly, check for voltage at the igniter plug.... a bad board will get bite you hard every time you slack off ;)

[@gone2thedogs265]

I am a DIY guy and can fix anything. My furnace was built in 1974 and I have never had it break down. I have installed gas line, electrical, water,waste line auto body auto repair computer build and repair appliance repair on and on and on. I did hire a new central AC install because i don't have the tools for that.

[@jpol3808]

[@williegillie5712]

As a DIYer I’m a human services tech. That is my profession. However I took two years vocational training and got my mechanics certification. I have also worked on small airplanes and worked a year as a postal worker. I have worked on furnaces, washing machines and dryers, plumbing and some carpentry. There isn’t much I won’t tackle. But DIYers owe it to themselves to learn about how each thing they work on. The principals of how each system works and if they have any doubts about what they are doing, leave it to a professional

[@TedCookHVAC]

Doubts ? The student can not judge himself... he needs a teacher. The typical DIYer tries to teach himself. In some cases that can become a real issue.

[@williegillie5712]

Anti DIY HVAC any person DIY or professional who does not pay attention to detail or understand what they are doing is bound to make mistakes. I’ve replaced inducers, flame sensors, igniters, control boards,cleared drain blockage preventing pressure switch from functioning properly(filled with drain water from drain blockage) replaced gas valve solenoids, elements and Replaced idler and drum wheels in dryers. The list goes on. Do I think anyone should be trying to DIY? absolutely not. I don’t touch anything I don’t first understand.( I had mentors) Even professionals come across something they have never worked on. If you understand the principles and have been trained you have the skills that will help you to know what you are doing.

[@shawnd567]

I agree. The anti-diy mindset on changing a simple igniter is so silly. If you can turn a screw driver, you could do this job.

[@midwestg4105]

Professional or DYI, I like learning and understanding how things work...thanks for your videos!

[@TedCookHVAC]

Glad you like them!

[@picklerix6162]

I installed one of those Robertshaw igniters in my Goodman furnace and it lasted for less than six weeks. The original igniter lasted 18 years. Those universal igniters are a waste of money.

[@Rottymaster]

The only time I've seen them work correctly for the long hall is when they come with the universal control board.

[@brandonrutt2898]

That’s called justifying the cost of repair by taking your good old time lol. Make sure you knock a screw driver into the furnace periodically so the homeowner can hear it. Nice repair and good tip on using the grill ignitor!

[@jakefavazza1239]

I agree with you. we get so many calls of customers trying to fix their own units and end up messing something up. I can't tell you how many 5 amp fuses I've had to change because a customer didnt know to kill power when changing a thermostat. it's best to always let the professional take care of it and if THEY mess it up, it's covered.

[@wilfredovega577]

Ted. You're the best. Merry Christmas to you.

[@walkingfreak]

Fun fact, me being a DIY guy and doing this kind of stuff and making mistakes made me a better man and put me in a great place today. If you make mistakes whether they be expensive ones or not it teaches you valuable lessons. I repair various things for a living that makes this kind of stuff look like child's play and i haven't had any real education on it. Mostly self taught and a whole hell of a lot of KZbin and google. Some guys shouldn't DIY things because they lack the common sense or competency but their is guys that absolutely should teach themselves valuable lessons.

[@hvacrcole]

Matthew what you don't know about a gas appliance will kill or burn down the structure. This individual is considered to be a professional but yet he is taking a opinion from another on how a flams sensor works, it's not at all what he said. It works off of micro amps through the flame, not ground. By the By what is the CO output, what is the CO2 output, what is the O2 and stack temperature. I don't know if that furnace is even safe to run because it wasn't checked properly. So what don't know will hurt you. The only way you are going to know how to do the job properly and safely is to get training.

At 6:35, the spinning fan on the right, what is the purpose of the black plastic cap? The reason I ask is that that same fan was making a very loud and high pitched noise. I dropped my flashlight and it hit that thin plastic cap while running and it shattered. I don't know what happened but the noise went away and seems to be running fine, for AC anyway. Any idea why the fan would make that noise and do I need to replace that cap?

[@jefferygrady3181]

As Clint Eastwood you have to know your limitations! Some people can't even change a filter while others can change a capacitor or a motor! It when you go beyond your abilities you can really screw up things! So I can understand why you don't promote diy Ted ! But today if you are a homeowner to afford having it you have to do as much as you can yourself with labor charges for doing things being so high! An example I never worked on a washer in my life! My20 year old washer was spitting water on the floor it would not be worth fixing if I had to pay someone to do it! But I went on utube and was able to diagnose what was wrong! A $15.00 part and a little work and it was fixed saving me from spending almost a thousand dollars buying a new one that isn't as good as the old one! Point is if you are mechanically inclined there is nothing wrong with doing some things yourself! I always admire your honesty Ted when it comes to what you say and do! Nice old wood stove! Thanks for another video I enjoy watching them Ted!

[@TedCookHVAC]

The “Anti” is a disclaimer.... I don’t suggest it, but since I know you’re going to... here are 100s of videos. Thank you for watching !!

[@celestialdream49]

Ok... watched a few of your videos... and yes, it's clear you don't like DIYers. Totally understand, it's obvious that the dumber DIYers have caused you a lot of pain, heartburn, and wasted time. I'm not sure I agree with your all DIYers and bad mentality. I've worked on my home HVAC, replaced the blower fan, replaced the controller board, and replaced the condenser fan and starter Cap... also had to replace the Compressor starter Cap because it was leaking white powder and didn't pass a meter test. Although I feel very confident about working on some parts of my home HVAC, I won't mess with the furnace or anything having to do with the Freon system. Like Clint Eastwood, a good DIYer always knows his limitations. :D Thank you posting and running your channel, I've learned a lot from you.

[@Chris_In_Texas]

Ted, quick tip for making your socket a bit "magnetic" is to take a small piece of electrical tape and put over the screw then put the socket over it. It will hold the screw / bolt / nut to the socket and then pull right off once you get it going.

[@Mahigeer1]

Please look up “Maslow’s hierarchy of needs”. It basically says when we do something right and it works out, we feel what is known as “self-actualization”. It is even more important than food and other needs for human beings. Perhaps DIY practitioners like to see if they can accomplish what seems to be a challenge. My first time was when I was asked (mockingly) to make a WV engine run. After adjusting the point gap in the distributer, the engine roared alive. It felt fantastic. I was in high school automotive class. Not even 19 years old. I recently diagnosed a bad four zone control board at my own house. After replacing it and marking the various wires with colored heat shrinks for future reference, I am happy to say…it is fixed. The bad relay along with the other 10 relays will be replaced. Repaired board will be a backup. There is no question that the combination of gas and electricity are a very dangerous. If you do your own work, better have your insurance coverage in order. Fortunately; thanks to KZbin and dedicated instructors like Mr. Cook, there are a lot of information on line. However, before attempting to repair gas furnace, be sure to do a lot of research.

[@mpurecat4155]

I admire the enthusiasm of diy ers, but i’d like to point out there’s a wide gap in talent with them. Some diy ers are mechanically inclined, some have a high degree of education, some have not much of either, but rarely do certain of them possess what it takes to handle almost anything in the house. I really should mention working on your own furnace is technically ok, and if you know enough about what you are doing then yes do so with upmost care and safety in mind. The part to keep in mind is your furnace, the minute you work on another person’s furnace is when you need to be licensed to do so, failure to do so can result in penalties of 50k or more. i’m not saying you would do such a thing, just wanted to offer some information should you choose to want to help your fellow friend or neighbor. Stick to stuff on only your home with that regard. his channel is meant for youtubers and anyone watching, but mostly for technicians, which is often why he states in videos to seek a licensed technician. That said, bravo on the diy fix, stay safe.

[@crand20033]

Why you dind't use the blink code to diagnose the igniter failure?

[@AlanSanderson-u4t]

Another issue with the multi-jet burner can be dust in the flame propagation channels in the stamped venturi sections. The burner will ignite but the flame has to propagate to all of the burner tubes to get from the igniter on the right to the flame detector on the left side. The flame sensor detects a small current by ionizing the flame plasma with high voltage supplied to the probe. This is a safety feature to detect that all of the tubes have ignited.

[@mystique0417]

I've learned how to replace my own after a $450 ignitor replacement on a Sunday night.

[@16480287]

As a Do it yourself er all my life and I'm 82 years old and I believe if you got the tools and can read there's nothing you can't fix ! If a Human made it I can fix it ! Let me tell you why I was at work one day and my wife called and said the dryers out so I couldn't fly home to fix it so I made my big mistake "Call a repair man" Now you can buy a new Dryer at that time for around $200 + . So the repair man comes and as he walks in the door that was $125 then he replaced the igniter , (Probably a universal one) never checked and the bill was $165 ouch ! Now just like you he is a professional and I do give you credit for that , but can't understand why you don't fix your own stuff . but to each his own.but come on , wife said if he was there about a hour that was about it. Now back to you first your a professional with no tools and used a universal part to fix the Furnace and cleaned the flame sensor and I bet you gave her a bill for over $200 ! Now that's why the world will always have us DIY guys. My Dad had a good motto " Either we fix it or break it then go buy a new one and it probably will be cheaper then calling a repair man. By the way I'm a retired aircraft and automotive mechanic but I taught many a friends to tackle the job and if you got a problem call me ! 82 years later I still turn a wrench.

[@VincentVonDudler]

If this is the third igniter this system will use... is there some systemic problem with this particular furnace?

[@FSAUDIOGUY]

I understand what Ted is saying on the DIY. I do a lot of my own work on my furnace because I have been doing the maintenance on it for 15 years. But here is the thing, when it comes to the main valve replacement, BTU adjustment or anything to do with the flow of gas on that furnace I call a tech. Why? Because I am not qualified to do that, as Ted said you make it worse by not knowing. Even if you light it in the wrong sequence you can hurt yourself and hurt the equipment. Same with AC units, I have no business charging an AC system, I have not been to school for it, I don't know the numbers or the correct procedures, call a tech for that stuff! I can't imagine jack legging an $8,000 unit to try and save a few hundred bucks, that is nuts! Yeah, you need your brakes done, roll it over here...Furnace/AC call Ted!

I fixed a Goodman after the tech couldn't. It had multiple error codes over three days. I eyeballed the board. The lamentation on the board was separating. There was high moisture in the return air compartment. I order a new board and it ran like a champ. I cant figure out why they would put the board in the blower compartment. But it took three days to figure it out. The 2 techs told them they would have to buy a new furnace. I paid $150 for the new board.

Oh and then some states charge you tax on your inventory. There was more involved than the 10 minute fix.
