Is running electric or fuel? The first thing you should check is if the unit is clean, free of dust and deposits.

Jerry, you may have a low pressure output on the air pump behind the electric fan motor. There are 2 plastic plugs at the rear cover where the filter is. One is just a plug. If you have a low pressure air gauge say 10-20 psi max, you can remove this plug and screw it in that hole. Do not over tighten the gauge. The other plug increases air pressure when you turn it clockwise, counter clockwise to decrease. this model usually is set around 6 - 6.5 psi. If the pressure does not increase, it may be time to remove the rear pump cover and investigate the filters, rotor & carbon blades.

No it not, Sounds like the bushings are worn. It is time to replace motor. the part number is fasco 105336-01.

Possible the thermocouple bulb has slipped out of position and isn't being heated as it should. If it is a model with a pilot light, perhaps it is blocked. The thermocouple is probably the most likely culprit.

The electrodes might need cleaned. I am attaching a link, please check out the FAQ section, then scroll down and click on FAQ for spark plug heaters. I hope this helps. Reddy Heater Parts Sales Online Mr Reddy Heater Parts Master Heater Parts...

Difficult to comment without knowing what function the circuit board has. Heaters of this type usually need a high voltage supply to produce a spark at the ignitor. The high voltage is typically produced by a transformer which historically is highly stressed and unreliable in some types. Your heater might be differently designed but it is fairly clear the ignition spark is absent...

You might have to call a Technician to service your unit

Check thermocouple

Could be flame sensor .Just take it out and clean

Jerry Mcgee answered this question here on FIXYA.. If a drop of water passes through the system and causes a momentary flameout condition, the photocell tells the control board to shut down- and it does. The photocell has done it's job. The ignitor only gets red for the first 5 seconds of burn-time, then the flame keeps itself going, at least until the water passes. Since water doesn't burn the flame goes out and there is nothing to restart the flame.

What part do you need from this picture? number pleace

the fuel to use will be on the specs plate attached to the unit as different fuels have different calorific values using different fuels for which the unit has been designed to use will cause smoke and other operational problems if there is no specs plate attached , contact the manufacturer and get the details from their engineers

Hi Kaza. see if this link helps you out. reddy heater 170t turns on and runs for few mins then shuts off Google...

I would check the thermocouple

Should be on the data plate. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/thomas_092728000e6acb79
