Check to see if you have proper voltage and enough gas pressure. Look to see if the fan motor is turning; the fan motor could be bad. At times, the intake vents may be dirty and blocked. If this is the case, clean the vents and the blower should start working. The problem could also be caused from a bad sail or limit switch that can be replaced. Look at the electrode to see if it is at the proper adjustment and the wires are connected and not burned out. Finally, check the gas valve. The valve could be bad, have a dirty burner or a bad control board. your Suburban RV furnace's burner does not ignite or stay lit. This could be from the gas pressure being low. The exhaust and intake air vents could be closed or blocked. This fix is easy because you need to clean out the vents with a wire brush. The problem could also be as simple as a dirty burner. If something is wrong with the electrode or control board, the burner will not ignite. Again, check the voltage, and if it is not at the levels your owner's manual suggests, see a professional at your local RV dealer to fix it.

  • At times, you may find soot covering the furnace or a dirty burner. This problem stems from a number of things, such as low gas pressure or an obstructed air vent. The fan motor may need to be replaced. Finally, a poor gas supply could be effecting the furnace. This may be caused by a crimped gas line or undersized tanks in below-freezing temperatures.

  • First thing I would change is the thermostat, if it will light once and then not again I believe the ignition system is working but not getting a signal to light. after that I would look at the sail switch.

    Have a7330-335 coleman mach t-stat and a 8531 atwood furnace, white wire on t-stat has 12v when calling for heat,schematic shows white wire connects to blue wire on furnace whitch also has 12v

    Yes. Just make sure that it is the thermostat wires and not the dc voltage going to the heater. The worst you will do is blow the 15amp fuse.

    Why does my Coleman furnace model# DGAA090BDTA stop and start to get up to temp?

    That's how it should work .Your furnace will cycle on and off to reach set point .
    You don't have to troubleshoot the thermostat. The reason why your furnace cycle is once the heat exchanger get to a certain temperature the board will shut it off, fan would still work to cool heat exchanger down then once cool down furnace will fire up again .

    I have a Coleman mach 3 ac unit. ive replaced everything except the compressor. the fan will come on but when i put it on ac it blows the fuse in the thermostat.

    Fuse in the tstat?? First inspect the low voltage wire outside for imperfections, such as bare wires. Unhook the low voltage wires to condenser outside and cap with existing wire nuts. Then replace fuse and turn system on with cooling. If fuse still good then you have a short in the contactor coil in the condenser. Need new contactor. If fuse only blows when a call for cooling it's in the wire for low voltage or the contactor itself.

    Coleman furnace dgaa077bdta

    The control fuses keep blowing tells me one or more of the control that operate the control on 24 volts is malfuctioning. Most controls operate at about 5 watts and on a clamp on amp meter normally pull about 0.2 amp (p = current x voltage, 5 watts = 0.2 amps x 25 volts) I install 75 watt 24 volt transformer with a resettable overload to save on fuses. I reset the transformer and quickly go to the controls and determine the amp draw. When I find the one >0.2 amps I found the problem. The things to check is the emergency heat sequencer, fan control sequencer, reversing valve for heat pumps, main contactor on the condensing unit and any other 24 volt control loads. I have had to replace the themostat wire because the increase current for the thermostat wire can cause the entire length of wire to form a long heater and cause insulation degradationa and cause the thermostat wire to short out and blow the fuses.
    Hope this helps

    A 1979 Colman RV furnace. Blower shuts off shortly after burner shuts off leaving a hot heat exchanger. After 15 seconds blower comes on again blows for 10 seconds shuts off comes on in 15 seconds blows...

    The fan limiting switch is acting up. It should stay running until lower temp is reached. It will cycle until the temp stays below or at the low setting. Limit switches are adjustable.

    Heat temperature issues with Goodman GMP 100-4 furnace

    69,000 btuh is adequate for a 12-1400 square foot house.
    Otherwise, your thermostat simply tells the furnace to cycle on/off.
    If it calls for heat and does not come on, the problem is with switches and relays within the furnace.
    Your setting the temp higher only causes the other parts to keep trying until they finally light and heat.
    This is based on your information saying it will cycle on and blow cool air--not hot air.
    You will have several temperature variations from floor to ceiling.
    You probably have ceiling vents as well.
    You need a technician to verify the rollout switches, fan relay, inducer fan etc. if the furnace is not firing everytime you call for heat.
