No Errors, No Heat: Solving a Goodman Furnace That Won’t Ignite"

[@jcmx0180]

That’s for sure

[@andreeriner811]

I think ide keep an extra one of those on your Van

[@WWHVAC]

Right

[@john7017]

Get a White Rogers 50M56X-843 control board it's for HSI furnaces and you program it with Bluetooth from your cell phone. It does PSC or ECM motors it covers just about every furnace except 2 stage or spark ignition. And they make a board for that too. I carry them in my truck, cuts down on inventory and driving for parts.

[@WWHVAC]

I’m an OEM guy. But I may keep one for backup. Thanks for the info. Always welcome here

[@ivancook1247]

​@WWHVAC i agree less trouble

[@Matts_Crafty]

Cold out there in them streets!!!

[@WWHVAC]

I'm telling ya

[@halverde6373]

That's not a bug but a feature on a Goodman. At least it can't burn the house down. Sometimes. 🤣🤣🤣

[@diegolopez19]

Walt, keep an older contactor that you know works on you. Connect the 24v going to the gas valve. When calling for heat, if the contactor pulls in? Then your gas valve is bad. If the contactor doesn’t pull in, then your control board is bad, like it was in this situation. Definitely cuts your diagnosing and troubleshooting time in half my boy 🙏🏽 Merry Christmas OG I hope you have a good one.

[@WWHVAC]

That's a good idea 💡 Merry Christmas

[@john7017]

And get yourself a set of piercing probes for your meter, makes life easier.

[@WWHVAC]

I have some, somewhere 🤔

[@Mr572u]

Most guys check for voltage on the wires, disconnected from the valve.

[@melvinwillingham233]

I found if the valve has a high resistance reading you want get a voltage reading with the wires attached

[@ivancook1247]

I always plug a contacter in to the gas valve wires if it pulls in and no light a no brainer

[@eugenkaranxha1659]

Get a torch light the best I have ever had 1400 lm I’m really picky when it comes to having good light to be able to see the whole front of the furnace working comfortably I tried every light out there the torch one is the best so far jobsmart had them but they stopped making that particular one 1400 lm very bright for this kinds of spaces

[@jcmx0180]

Walt give us two calls. This is very interesting. I would love to try heating and cooling. I just don’t like to be surprised by critters.

[@WWHVAC]

I'm sure critters don't like to be surprised by you.. 🤣

[@AmericanFarmerHVAC2024]

You sure don't want to be surprised by the stinging critters...

[@deanmartin1966]

-12 windchill here in the Midwest. Shit 63 degrees in Texas is shorts and tank tops. Lol

[@WWHVAC]

Yall gotta have a different kind of will power to work in that weather

[@deanmartin1966]

@ worked in -25 windchill in my younger days. Not anymore. Lol

[@richlikeg3722]

How much is usually a control board? I might keep one as a spare. I have a 2006 Goodman furnace

[@WWHVAC]

Depends..anywhere from $100 to $2000.Yours probably $100-$250

[@Matts_Crafty]

Have to go look at a damn Goodman thus morning myself 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@WWHVAC]

Easy money 💰

[@jimmybrooks179]

Thank God our cold (San Antonio, Tx) is not like the cold on the East coast. Do you service the valves also? Thanks for the footage.

[@WWHVAC]

What valves?

[@ld2692]

man where you got that bench from, that’s kinda cool. i have to get me one

[@WWHVAC]

Collapsible Stool amzn.to/3ZMWBtw

[@mr.roberts3886]

I bet the reason why it didn't fire the first two times after you changed board is because air was in the line after you took apart that gas line. It had to purge

[@bradyharbison7521]

He said he had the valve off

[@WWHVAC]

Yeah, Gas valve was off when I tested earlier

[@c21meister]

Man oh man it’s been nothing but bad boards and gas valves this winter. I haven’t got no easy igniter or dirty flame sensor calls yet lol

[@WWHVAC]

Big money 💰

[@5822huron]

It's all easy man

[@Ogtonyg]

I usually just plug my gas valve into a contactor and pray that it doesn't pull in so i can replace the board.🤣 I am absolute trash and slow with replacing gas valves depending on the setup.

[@WWHVAC]

@@Ogtonyg They can be tough sometimes

[@jcmx0180]

What do those boards cost around ?

[@joemcfarland3491]

So far it's been inducer motors and boards for me lol‼️🎯

[@WWHVAC]

@joemcfarland3491 What have you found going bad on the induced motor?bearing, grounded, etc...

[@joemcfarland3491]

@WWHVAC both bad motors I had was bad bearings.

[@lancelawrence3259]

Good work

[@WWHVAC]

Appreciate it

[@jcmx0180]

😂

[@eugenkaranxha1659]

That induces fan sounds like it’s on the way out I have like 30 repair calls every day now that is getting cold again I kip telling people get them serviced before the winter but they love paying the big bucks on the last minute I love stupidity

[@WWHVAC]

You rocking and rolling!
