    Luxaire troubleshooting
    I am in the third heating season with my Luxaire system. One of my units stopped blowing air and if I swith it to manual, it still does not initiate the blower. The burners fire up and burn for about a minute but the blower does not start and the burners shut off. What controls the blower initiation and is there a simple fix?

    One quick check is to see if there is a fuse or breaker in between the heat and blower.

    The blower motor may be blown. Do you have a multi meter? If you do, make sure you have voltage going to your blower motor.

    Sometimes, you will see a switch plate with a red faceplate. Make sure they are in the "On" position.

    The only Model number I found readily is HE23436C175B1805AB. I will check for a fuse or breaker and a switch plate.

    The correct model number is
    FL9V080B126PHC
    I do not find a fuse,but I know it has one. Unable to get the lower shield off to check that area. Not sure what kind of fuse is there.

    It is not a simple fix if you do not know what you are doing. Your units model number indicates it has a variable speed motor. You need to call a local company for on site service. Sorry but that is a very expensive part to be playing with.
