Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
The inducer motor on our 20 yr old gas furnace runs intermittently (like 30 seconds every 2 minutes) and cycles back off....as if the pressure switch has failed to signal the burner that is it OK to ignite. I also notice the circulation fan is running constantly while this occurs. At the time the programmable t-stat is set to "auto fan". "cool", temperature set to 77' and room temp is 76'. Compressor runs and cools normally when I change setpoint to 75'. I'm not sure yet if the inducer is cycling like this when the AC is running.
I see several videos and forum posts about problems with the pressure switches but I haven't found any explanation for why the gas starting sequence is being activated in the middle of summer. I did notice this occurred last summer too, but I never got around to doing anything about it. The heating worked fine all winter.
