GlennWest Posted October 26, 2018 Report Posted October 26, 2018 My furance quit. Ok, fan runs but no heat. Checked the snair switch, good. Furance fans comes on, snair switch makes circuit, igniter clicks, smell of propane, no flame. Cycles until shut down. Is igniter bad or control board? 2003 Teton Grand Freedom towed with 2006 Freightliner Century 120 across the beautiful USA welding pipe.https://photos.app.goo.gl/O32ZjgzSzgK7LAyt1

Wrknrvr Posted October 26, 2018 Report Posted October 26, 2018 I would suggest to install a wire on the igniter wire and then the other end about an 1/8" from a ground. Turn on furnace with the switch on the outside. Furnace must be turned on for heat inside first. This will tell if board is good. The board is sendinding power to the gas valve. If it has spark then pull igniter after shutting off the gas. There may be a bug in the oriface also. just a thought,. Vern

Daveh Posted October 26, 2018 Report Posted October 26, 2018 Glenn I had that problem and determined my gas valve was sticking. Since you smell propane I would focus on the ignitor. Dave and Lana Hasper

GlennWest Posted October 26, 2018 Author Report Posted October 26, 2018 Had forgotten about that hard pipe. I may replace that with stainless steel if this happens again. 2003 Teton Grand Freedom towed with 2006 Freightliner Century 120 across the beautiful USA welding pipe.https://photos.app.goo.gl/O32ZjgzSzgK7LAyt1
Alie&Jim's Carrilite Posted October 26, 2018 Report Posted October 26, 2018 Natural gas and propane are both wet gases. In the natural gas they have compressors and dryers that remove the accumulated moisture, in propane, well as you have now seen, the system rots from the inside out.

GlennWest Posted October 26, 2018 Author Report Posted October 26, 2018 Yes, understand. Wonder why this is the norm with propane? I can get stainless steel pipe easily.
