Fan Runs No Start
I apologize for not getting back sooner, I was busy with my head in the furnace. I took everything apart, tested it all, it all tested good and put it all back together. At this point I want to say it is fixed and working good.
The problem was the furnace sits right on the basement floor and we have had an extremely wet start to the winter this year. We have had seepage up through the concrete floor. The dampness got into the filter, you couldn't readily see it, but I eventually saw a very slight discoloration in the filter paper. I also want to say that the first, second and third thing did was change the filter. The last one is the one that showed a slight staining. I later checked them under a glass and found it in all.
What I surmise happened is the moisture caused the paper element to swell slightly which caused a drop in air flow. The lack of air to the blower caused the heat exchanger to over heat and create a thermal lock-out.
Let me know if that sounds feasible to any of you. I also cut a shallow moat in the floor around the furnace to channel any moisture away to the sump drain area.
I want to say thank you to all of you that offered help. I couldn't have done it with out you. You are true Santa heroes. You gave my wife, my service dog and me the gift of heat for Christmas.
