Re: Intermittent Heat Operation Evcon DGAT070BDC

Well, the unit has been working reliably for the last few weeks. However, it is acting up again. I am thinking it may be the sensor that is on the blower(?) assembly that sends a signal back to the ignition control block indicating a heat source. I am guessing that this is a thermocouple or similar ...

I don't physically switch the wires, I cross the TH and VALVE terminals on the ignition control block with a pair of needle nose pliers and the unit turns on. I do this when it hangs up. It has been in "working mode" and I put a multimeter on it and initially there is no voltage at the val...

Re: Intermittent Heat Operation Evcon DGAT070BDC

I am concerned because the valve is a bit pricey. I can get the unit to turn on by crossing the TH and VALVE terminals on the ignition control block. I haven't thought to check for voltage at the gas valve terminal, but I will do so. Just wondering if it could be a faulty ignition control.

Re: Intermittent Heat Operation Evcon DGAT070BDC

Thanks for the reply. What needs to be replaced to make the furnace work reliably? This is my primary home so it is in constant use. Tough getting up at 3AM when the unit is running and no heat comes on.
