Will turn on sometimes and then goes off. the buttons don't change anything. Can't change the fan speed, or from low to high, nor from heat to cool.
SOURCE: Sometimes heats, sometimes not.Ignitor is
if it just takes a long time to heat u need to check or clean your venting if not it could be ur ignitor,, or also some coils also called gas valve solenoid coil kit comes with both item number 3479 at repairclinc.com those are generic frig coils but would work fine in ur unit those fixes are allot less inexpensive then tryin to replace the timer assy
SOURCE: unit cools but has only low speed. is fan bad or control board
Hi Joe, it could be one or the other, or may be just the switch. About the only way you will know which one it is, is if you have a meter that will read the voltage up to 220 volts if that is what voltage the unit is. I have seen 3 speed motors have one speed fail before, you would have to get the the leads behind the fan knob and with the switch in high position, check for power from the high speed wire to ground to see if you are reading 120 volts. Same on the switch, you would kill power and remove wires from switch. With the meter set on continuity, when its turned to high, your leads should be one on high terminal and the other to ground. You should have a reading depending on the range your meter is set when switch is on high, and nothing when off to ground. This is the only way to know. If the switch checks out, continuity out when its turned to high, or you have power going to the motor lead that's for high to ground, its the motor. If you have no meter, you can pick one up very cheap at a hardware store as low as $10.00 to do this check. You can use it for many other things on your auto and in home also. Try and do these checks, and keep me posted. Please be kind when rating me if I have been of help to you. I will be here if you have more questions.

PS If no continuity on the switch when turned to high, the switch is faulty. I really don't feel it is a board problem.
