I have a Goodman air handler, model A36-05 from 1997, that only works intermittently. After numerous service calls, different parts replaced, and most recently a new thermostat, I have narrowed down the issue to the blower time delay relay. This conclusion is partly due to what has been replaced, but mostly everything I have read in HVAC forums about this Therm-O-Disc part being faulty. (Not that I consider something breaking after 15 years faulty.) The part numbers on the current relay do not match what I found as the replacement part number, B13707-38:
The price I found for a replacement is $13.99 w/ free shipping, but the contacts are not exactly the same as what is in place now:
Although my current setup is not using positions 3 and 4, and position 4 is missing from the new relay, will the new one work? If so, I assume that I swap the wires in position 1 to 1 and 2 to 2, then swap the two wires from the tapered end at the base and finally the single wire on the opposite side. Is this correct?
Any help or direction is appreciated.
