    How do I check combustion fan. Two wires from top to power and two wires from bottom
    I replaced the big fan motor an capacitor and it just hums when I turn switch to on . I can hot wire it and it runs fine. I want to check the little cobustion fan but it has four wires two for power and two for a sensor on the ventilation fan?

    If you connect the 2 wires that go to the sensor, Fan will run all the time, instead of turning off when heat is present.
