Air Handler Control Board Operation and Troubleshooting!

In this HVAC Training Video, I Show How a Basic Air Handler Control Board Works and How to Diagnose a Problem. I show the Electrical Connections, the Voltage Path, and Troubleshooting Using a Multimeter. Supervision is needed by a licensed HVACR Tech while performing tasks as Experience and Apprenticeship garners Wisdom and Safety.

    Question: on one video you said you made the transformer tester the one in this video. I understand all you have done here, testing the relay that operates the blower motor, but is the tester so that you can totally cut the power in the airhandler to make it safe with low voltage? thanking you in advance

    Summary: Pls tell me if I'm wrong. 1. shut pwr off at air handler. 2. remove wires to relay and tape them away from board and each other. 3. test C and NO to see if no resistance same with C and NC for resistance. 4. Run a jumper wire from R to G test for resistance and level at said terminals. 5. is the relay good and operating as designed. Did I miss anything?

    Very good video in fault finding etc. Unfortunately we seem to live in a more disposable environment today where HVAC techs just willingly throw away & order a new PCB, which in turn kills skills you easily forget. In my apprenticeship 20 years ago I remember being taught to sit & fault find. Now it’s just a rip everything out and replace society as parts are so cheap, which is good in it saves you time, but you quickly lose your knowledge.

    My particular board doesn’t turn off. In other words once it gets energized the time delay for off function does not occur. I could probably fix the board but I don’t have a schematic. It was like $18 shipped. My guess it’s the IC chip.
