Hello
I had a repair guy come to my house that i had a bad heater circuit. what is that is it in the main board?
It runs no glow I do not hear the solenoids fire can you help?
I tested both limit switches flame sensor and the igniter but there is a weird senso on this machine that has 3 wires coming from it . I am not sure how to test that .

Hi. I have attached the service manual on this unit for you. I am not sure the sensor you are referring to. The service manual will show you how to test every part on the machine. You can run diagnostics as well. If you do not have power to the gas valve/ igniter and all of your fuses and sensors test good, you would have a bad control board.

Wow. That’s a strange one. I would go back through the service manual and see if there’s anything you’re missing and run through the no heat troubleshooting chart. Maybe you have a wiring issue somewhere losing voltage.

would a bad gas valve make it not glow?

the thermistor reads 13.2 that’s good

A bad gas valve would not cause the igniter to not come on since it is not an electrical component. The gas coils on the gas valve typically won’t cause this but it is possible they could. Some of these gas valves include the gas coils and you can not get the coils separate. I would check your flame sensor first. I believe you said you were not getting power down to the gas valve though, so the first thing you would need to do is find out where you’re losing power down to the gas valve assembly.
