Hi guys, newbie first time poster here. :eek: I have a Carrier gas furnace, model# 395BAW036060. The draft inducer motor stopped working and I soon learned there was no power being fed to the motor. By physically touching what I'm assuming is a relay box on the inducer control board, the motor would begin working. The local furnace parts place told me the answer was simple: replace the inducer control board. They sold me a part# 313680-751 made by Replacement Components Division. I had an HVAC technician/friend come over and install it as per the directions in the board kit. (he only had to swap out the female spade connector clip on the brown wire to a slightly larger size) Within 5 minutes we were ready to test the new part. It didn't make any difference. The inducer motor does not come on when there is a call for heat and therefore, the furnace won't run. He told me the board had to be defective and to get another one. I took it back to the parts retailer the next day and they told me "NO RETURNS ON ELECTRICAL PARTS". After much griping, they gave me another board and said [I]they[/I] were going to have to eat the $164 for the board they just gave me. They said that for all they knew, something else wrong with my furnace could have blown the first new board out and that's why their policy is as such. Anyway... I guess my question is: Did they sell me the correct replacement inducer board? There are a lot more little doo-dads on the new board than the old/original one did, but I figured this was because it may be some sort of a universal part, fitting a few other models. The physical board itself is the exact same size & shape, and all harnesses that connect to it fit precisely as they should. It mounts up just like the old board, fits perfect. Just doesn't work. Now I'm afraid to install the new-new board for fear they're right about there being something else wrong with my furnace which hurt the first new board. The first new board doesn't appear damaged. e.g. no burn spots, no funny smell came from it, wasn't hot on removal, etc. Any ideas what I should try? Thanks in advance!!
