Reddy Heater 110K btu motor won't start.
Bearing have gone bad in the electric motor. You will have to replace the electric motor. They are expensive but still cheaper than buying a whole new heater.

I replaced all filters and the nozzel pump presure
I want you to inspect the fuel tank, you are looking for water that may have entered while in storage. Condensation builds from storing them and it can duplicate what you are saying here. What I did was to empty the fuel in a clean five gallon bucket and observe, fuel is lighter than water so it floats to the top water sinks to the bottom. If water is present please try to dry out the tank the best you can by soaking it up with a rag. You can siphon off the fuel just be careful not to get the water. If no water is present check to see how the igniter is positioned in conjunction to the angled spray of atomized fuel.You may have to bend it in a little closer to the fuel.

Reddy heater has problem staying on
Check the foam filters located in the back, their is also a primary air adjustment slot in the back try adjusting that each time you fire it to see if you can get it to stay on.
Can you see the fuel oil coming out of the nossle? If
not clean it. If it has a cad cell that could be bad or dirty, you might have to bypass it to see if that is the
problem.

I have reddy heater125t the flame lite
It sounds more like airflow and too high of a temp. The fan blades and return vent side must be very clean to keep this big guy pushing the btus out of the heater. A restriction of any kind could cause this overheating situation causing it the shut itself down. If you are confident that air is not the problem, make sure the nozzle that the kerosene comes out of is clean also.

Reddy Heater not firing
Take air preassure from an air hose to turn the fan blades to loosen everything up. Time for afull service, like change the vanes in the pump, 3- filters fuel--2 air.

RH125T won't fire
Not much to check. The element comes out and makes a square loop back to the ceramic portion. This element is extremely brittle and will break if touched or wiped off.
You can check the 2 wires with a voltage tester set on continuity. The needle should swap sides if the ignitor is intact. I don't ever remember an ignitor failing, except for breakage.
View this page. Be sure you get the correct ignitor. 2 different ones have been used on the RH125T.

RH125T won't fire
If you blew compressed air into the combustion chamber from the nozzle end of the heater there is a good chance that you broke the ignitor. Check it.

I have a reddy heater pro 110 that runs fine for a few minutes then dies. The pump is at 5 psi where it is supposed to be . It has new filters and nozzle. What else could it be ?
Here are some possible causes and solutions:
Insufficient fuel supply: If the fuel supply is not sufficient, the heater may shut off. Check the fuel tank and make sure it is full. If the fuel tank is full, check the fuel line for any blockages or leaks. If you find any issues, repair or replace the fuel line.
Dirty fuel filter: A dirty fuel filter can cause the heater to shut off. Check the fuel filter and clean or replace it if necessary.
Faulty photocell: The photocell is responsible for detecting the flame. If the photocell is dirty or faulty, the heater may shut off. Clean the photocell with a soft cloth and check if the heater works properly. If the problem persists, replace the photocell.
Defective motor: If the motor is defective, the heater may shut off. Check the motor and replace it if necessary.
Broken ignition system: If the ignition system is broken, the heater may shut off. Check the ignition system and replace it if necessary.
As you have covered some other possibilities, if the above doesn't offer relief, you may have to consult a professional technician or contact the manufacturer.
