Hmmmm sounds to me like there is a problem with the wand. Maybe its clogged. You can read here at the top part on how to clean it . Here is a link that might be useful: Pressure washer tips

Hello everyone, I am new to the forum, but have been a long time fan of GardenWeb. There appear to be a lot of good people on this web site, happy to share their skills and knowledge. With that said, our circa 2008 (bought by previous home owner) Accentra insert worked fine until last week when I discovered a blown fuse was the cause of why it randomly (and instantly) shut off. I ordered the specific fuse online (for those who don't know, the replacement is a 120V/250V fast acting 6A glass fuse that measures 6mm x 30mm; the more common 20mm size will be too short). While waiting for the fuses to arrive, I took the time to thoroughly clean out the insert- including taking out the medallion and side plates and cleaning out the ports/vents in each corner. I discovered the left plate was rusted shut and found, once I pried it off, wet gunk and a lot of rust packed around the port/vent. It looks like this side of the insert was not properly venting for a long time. Once I put everything back together and replaced the blown fuse, I turned it on and discovered a problem. The power light will come on and when I turn up the temperature, the activity light and combustion motor light turn on. However, the actual combustion blower/fan does not power on. The insert remains silent and the feed motor never powers on (nor does the light turn on). Oddly enough, when I put the feed rate controller in the test mode to force the feed auger to turn on, it does not actually turn on, but the combustion blower/fan does finally turn on. FYI, I was not using a surge protector and the norm is for me to turn off the insert abruptly by disconnecting it from the outlet via a remote control. I know, probably bad practice. My hypothesis are the following: 1) A surge caused the fuse to blow, but somehow not fast enough causing damage to the controller PCB. Visually, I see no signs of shorting or overheating. 2) In order for me to get to the fuse, I had to disconnect the controller board from its various connections and wiring bundle. I noticed the two blue wires with spade connectors had very little slack. The wire bundle was also tight. Perhaps me tugging at it caused a wiring issue? 3) Maybe the severely blocked and strangely wet port/vent caused a sensor to go bad or a motor to burn out? I would love to get this running sooner than later, but I'm not sure how to troubleshoot it. What could have caused this issue? If anyone has an ideas what I should do or check out next, please share. Thank you! - ÃÂukasz

Normally the furnace mfg. does not built there own inducers. Was it under warranty? And the next question, was the paper work done right by the installing contractor. The Mfg. sends out paper work on recalls and problems they are having on parts. Some dealers don't go through there records to find these furnaces to help the customers out. When this happens to me as a dealer, i call my wholesaler and he can tell me how many of a certain model i sold and the job name of each one.Then i can go through my records and call these people and have my service man do the repairs. Most of the time the Mfg. pays for both parts and labor. Paul

When I began the series of radiations for prostate cancer, Jan. 6, the radiation therapists (as they call themselves _ I call them "radiators") told me that I'd likely need to be visiting the bathroom more often - and they ... were... not... kidding! Like - about 20 times a day, some days, sometimes in rather concentrated "shots" ... so that sometimes I can have a couple of hours to myself. Anyway ... the doc suggested some imodium to slow down the diarrhea, and I've been using it for a couple of weeks ... with little visible result. The therapist told me the other day, on my having asked, that I could probably expect some "hangover" ... ... for a couple of weeks ... to a month ... after the radiation is completed, on Wed. Feb. 24. Wish me luck! ole joyfuelled ... with rather low level of usual fuelling, lately
