Pressure switch bypassing for testing
Posted: Sat Feb 26, 2011 2:36 pm
Cloleman home heating unit
Model: DGAA077BDTB
Is it possible to BYPASS my units pressure switch to test if the part is bad or not? I.E. if i connect the two wire terminals via a wire will the switch then be bypassed and run the heater without the part operating? I have already gone ahead and placed an order for the part regardless, however, it would really be nice to actualy know if the part is bad or not! Local HVAC GUY CHARGED ME $119 DOLLARS U.S. TO JUST TELL ME IT COULD POSSIBLY BE MY PROBLEM but REFUSED to replace the part while he was here saying that without knowing for a fact it was the problem he could not replace the part IN GOOD CONSCIENCE. I find this absurd and refuse to call this moron back to just recharge another 119 dollar service fee wether he does any work or not! There has GOT TO BE A WAY to test these silly parts!!!! Any suggestions?
Please help?
