What's wrong with my heater? It comes on, runs for

Could be the Photocell at the back of the burner (flame sensor-try cleaning it off. Or test by jump the connectors. If it works then replace it) Photocells are easy to replace and when you install new one be sure it's pointing straight at the flame.

Drain it clean it out real good clean out the fuel system end to end. From the line in to the tank thru the filter and so on remove the nozzle clean the screen and nozzle put it all back together. with the top section removed try to start the heater. You should have a fine mist of fuel and spark if it lights shut it down and clean the photo electric eye with a soft cloth and windex. make sure the igniter is clean and close to the fuel mist for ignition, put the top on and turn on your heater.

I have a reddy heater 50000 BTU, it is getting fuel and spark but will not ignite. What could be the problem?

You have fuel and spark but it won't ignite...
The problem must either be the spark or the fuel - the ignition unit isn't an unusual failure so is the spark gap correct; if there is a failing spark there is a temptation to reduce the size of the spark gap.

The fuel, paraffin or diesel isn't very volatile so it must be presented to the spark in a form that is easily burned and that means a very finely atomised spray - problems with the spray are common with older heaters, usually caused by small particles of dirt or rust either making the spinner stick or freeze or wearing the fit between the spinner and jet and the jet orifice and even if the jet is in good condition it is important to have the correct air pressure that is checked and adjusted whenever the heater is serviced.

Paraffin or kerosene has a fairly high content of dissolved water and when the inside of a fuel tank is unprotected steel, the fuel can cause some rusting...
A thorough internal clean and refill with filtered fuel will usually restore performance for the season.

Reddy Heater Pro 125T: Motor runs, flame ignites briefly, then shuts off with a "Flame" fault light and needs to be reset. But I have done ALL the troubleshooting.

Apparently the photocell needs to see a flame of the correct colour or it will shut down so the nozzle and spinner has to be in very good condition - diesel might be clean but is the inside of the tank clean?
The fit between the spinner and nozzle is so very close it can stick with very small particles.

Can't speak for the Reddy Heater but a bad spark transformer seems a very common problem with that type of heater - ensure the spark gap is correct.

Got a reddy heater pro 115 ignitor out mine doesn't use spark plug does this thing glow all the time while running or can you manually light these heaters

Never try and light a furnace when you have a glow coil ignitor. Even if you managed to do so it would reach high temp and limit would stop it. . trained technician can do this but why? If your glow coil is glowing constantly after start up than mast likely you have a control board problem. Call a technician to troubleshoot it

My Reddy heater pro 110 was not heating up so I changed the air filters inlet and outlet plus fuel filter. All I get is the fan blowing for about 30 seconds to a min them it shuts down and I have to unplug it to reset it. Take the top off and it will ignite and run but once the top goes on it shuts right down.

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