E2EB-015HA problems

Elements continue to heat after fan kicks off. Replaced sequencer but that did not help.


THanks,

Hi,


First, be sure it isn't the t-stat by removing the W wire.

IF still energized after that:

Need to look at elements. Best way is to remove blower housing and look down at elements from above with light.


See if one of them has fallen down and touching element frame.


Thanks,
Robert

Thanks Robert, I found a broken heating element. I assume the end of it was dangling down and grounding out on the frame.

Thanks,

I tied it back together until I can get one and it works fine. What is the part # I need to order?

Hi Greg,

You're very welcome. You should have 3 coils, 2 on one assembly plate and one on the other.


Which coil is it ? The plate assembly has to be replaced, you cannot get just the one coil.

Is it the single coil assembly or one of the double coils ?

It would be best to disconnect the wires to the broken coil and go with the two remaining until replaced.

It will up the amps tying it together and can cause more damage and even become a fire hazard like that.



Thanks,
Robert
