Hello. the first thing you need to determine is if the solenoid is getting 24 volts when the furnace turns on, you should be getting 24 volts at the solenoid valve. If not you need to start at the transformer and see if you are getting 24 volts there, if not then most likely the transformer is bad and must be replaced, if you are getting 24 volts at the transformer then check the wiring and make sure it;s tight. also check the humidistat and sail switch/ current sensing relay to make sure they are working properly.
hi ihg4. As time goes on the bearings in these fan motors start to show wear and tear. This manifests itself into a noisier humidifier. One way to minimize this noie is to put the humidifier on a piece of carpeting which will deaden the sound. Joe
I have the exact same problem. I can hear the solenoid "click" but when I try and "blow" threw it I cannot. I removed the little screen filter inside where the copper pipe connects, still no luck. Not sure what the flat blade screw is for with the locking nut, other than to adjust the position of the solenoid. I checked for flow of water outside of the valve. Also my contractor hooked this up to the Hot water side of the water heater. Does anyone know if this is correct? I would think you get more corrosion on this side.

Your
Aprilaire Humidifier is designed to operate in conjunction with your furnace
blower motor. Most installers wire a humidifier to operate when the furnace is
calling for heat. To determine if your Aprilaire Humidifier is maintaining
proper humidity, turn up the heat temperature 5 degrees above the current room
temperature on your thermostat and set your humidifier control to call for
humidity. The humidifier control is located on the cold air return duct.To set your humidifier control to call for
humidity, turn the control dial to the off position and slowly rotate the dial
until you hear a “click” on the control.You should also hear a click at the solenoid valve located on your
Aprilaire unit.The humidifier control
will have a click point at the current relative humidity level in your home. If
the current relative humidity is 45% or the outdoor temperature is above 60F,
the control will only operate the humidifier in the test mode.

No click at the solenoid valve indicates
an electrical problem.Contact your
heating and air conditioning dealer to further check the electrical
components of your Aprilaire Humidifier.
The click sound at the solenoid valve
indicates there is electricity to the solenoid valve.By turning the dial of your humidifier
control to a setting above the “click point” you should see water coming
out of the drain line within a few minutes which would indicate your
humidifier is working.
If the solenoid valve makes a click
sound and there is no water draining from the unit, this would indicate
the flow of water is being obstructed.
1.To
determine if water flow is being obstructed, turn the dial of your humidifier
control to the off position.The first
location you would want to check for an obstruction would be at the saddle
valve located on the water line supplying water to the humidifier. When
checking the saddle valve, you want to make sure it is completely open.This can be done by turning the valve all the
way to the left.If anything is clogged,
it can be dislodged by turning the saddle valve all the way to the right and
back to the left.Once this is done,
turn the humidifier control dial above the click point and you should see water
coming out the drain line. If water is still not
coming out of the drain, check the orifice and in-line strainer to make sure
they are not clogged.The orifice is
located in the tube on the discharge side of the solenoid valve and the in-line
strainer is located on the inlet side of the solenoid valve. You may clear the orifice by inserting a
needle through the small opening.Clean
the strainer by running it under warm water to dislodge deposits or replace.After clearing and re-installing the orifice
and strainer (be sure to double wrench all water connections), turn the humidifier
control dial above the click point and you should see water coming out the
drain line.
Fuel travels from the gas tank in the rear via the pump located in the tank. The fuel line travels under the driver's side of the car up into the engine bay, then enters the fuel filter, which is located on top of the driver's front fender in the engine bay. It's about the size of the bottom of a beer can and then the fuel heads on into the injection system on the engine.
check the pilot gas pressure, might be too weak and blowing out when the blower starts, the clicking noise is the gas valve shutting down when it detecks no pilot flame, that park is normal.
Was having a similar problem. Disconnected the source line and opened saddle valve. I was getting water to the solenoid but nothing out the other side. My humidistat doesn't have a "test" setting, it's either off or the highest humidity. I held the outbound line in my hand and experimented with adjusting both sadlle valve and humidistat. I didn't get any water until I opened the saddle valve MUCH further than I thought was necessary and turned the humidistat to near the highest setting. Once I had water coming though I experimented with the setting on the humidistat, turning it off and then slowly increasing the humidity until the solenoid clunked and water started coming out. I would recommend anyone having this same problem to open the saddle valve all the way (I was surprised how many turns that took) and set the humiditstat to it's highest setting.
