@ May 17, 2012 9:09 AM in Review by "experts"

So very true.
As an instructor I find the thought of "Review of Basics" all too unpleasant for many adult students. Gently reviewing basic sequence of operation , theory and lab work without the student feeling the lesson plan for the day is review , always works well though.
Adopting this into the curriculum for both trade and technical schools where I instruct , I have seen a better understanding of basics, class participation and test scores overall from our students. The realization of far too many technicians NOT having a solid foundation of basics is a very scary prospect in our industry. The importance of basic theory , sequence of operation and troubleshooting can never be understated.
Being creative in lesson plan and curriculum in such ways as to include daily review , without the student realizing review is the days topic, is most rewarding not only to the adult student but to the instructor as well.
Thank You to Eugene , Tim and Dan for allowing me to "borrow" a page from your books to better prepare technicians and strengthen our trades technicians abilities.

Fault found

@ March 9, 2012 12:04 PM in Rheem oil fired scorched air furnace. Inconsistent blower operation .

Manufacturers A/C ready kit relay found to be the culprit.

Rheem oil fired scorched air furnace. Inconsistent blower operation .

@ March 8, 2012 10:41 AM in Rheem oil fired scorched air furnace. Inconsistent blower operation .

helpingothershelpthemselves needs help .
Rheem oil fired scorched air highboy up-flow furnace. Approximately three years old.
Blower operation extremely inconsistent.
Unit utilizes Honeywell fan outboard logic control for blower timing operation . OEM Rheem # 47-102686-01
Replacement of fan controller proved useless. Timing changes to controller also proved useless.  
Not the normal customer complaint of blower running too long after cycle , but complaint of blower on too early as well as blower on too long after run cycle.
Have we seen any issues regarding this ? Possibly a revision level in circuit board ?   
Thanks,
