York Stellar Plus Natural gas furnace, I bought the house about five years ago so I dont know exactly how old it is. It is small; only heats back half of house and that consists of only a few rooms.
Sticker says model # P1UDD06N03801A York Stellar Plus Natural gas furnace for furnace.
Situation:
When heat is switched on, the small motor starts running, the pressure switch closes, the igniter ignites gas, and the fan limit thermostat rotates as it heats up. At the 100 degree tab the blower velocity seems to increase, at the 130-140 degree tab the blower velocity increases more, but the temperature seems to increase until the limit switch hits 200 degree tab and shuts it down. Then the cycle keeps repeating. The furnace never continues to run and cannot maintain the temperature that the thermostat is set to.
On my unit, all of the drainage hoses for the elimination of the condensation water are placed over blower motors or over critical circuitry. Leaky hoses have caused moisture to drip into the control boxes and corrode many connections. After cleaning the connections and replacing connectors, the unit still behaves the same. It is a very simple unit and has no error code LED.
Question: What could be the problem, what can I test further myself? How would you begin to troubleshoot this?
Thanks,
JCE
