My furnace is "short cycling" I believe. Typically he blower will turn on for about a minute and then shut off. I can hear the inducer motor running for a few minutes and then the blower kicks on for a normal amount of time to complete the cycle. There have been a couple of times that the inducer motor will run for an inordinate amount of time (approximately 10-15 minutes) before the main blower will finally kick on. I suspect the heat exchanger is overheating but I'm not sure.
What we've done:
- flame sensor was replaced last year
- Pressure switch was replaced last year for a different problem
- Filter is clean
- We cleaned out the vents the best we could
What I plan to try:
- attempt to clean out the inducer motor exhaust
- clean off the flame sensor even though it's new
I could use some guidance from anyone who's willing to give it before this gets worse.
