Agreed, I watched about 20 other videos trying to solve my problem before I came across this one. Subscribed, and will be my first go-to in the future!

This video saved me a $300 service call in the middle of an ice storm. I have a 30+ year old propane furnace that had a stuck limit relay...fixed with a little percussive maintenance!

You have no idea how much I appreciate you making this video and sharing valuable information.

This is what I'm looking for an HVAC technician, a detailed step by step diagnostic check. Unlike other tech guy who jumps to the circuit board as the main problem for a continuously running blower fan. Salute to you brother!

How you can make this so simple and straight forward is absolutely amazing! Great job and THANK YOU!

Your tip on checking the high limit switch being stuck open by giving it a smack was exactly what my furnace needed! Thanks for the video!!

You are amazing! Spent hours following information from other sites without any progress. With in 5 mins of watching this I got my heater working. Not one of the other sites mentioned the trick with the stuck heat limit switch. Thank you so much!

Absolutely awesome info! Your my go too for all HVAC and home repairs. Your delivery always has a sequence of operation that is easy, understandable and always educational. No way I would tackle or feel confident on the home repairs that I’ve done without your help. Keep up the great work and look forward to more videos!

THANK YOU for posting this video, followed step by step and discovered it was a stuck relay on the MB. There is NO WAY I could have narrowed it down without your video, you saved me time, you saved me money, and now I know where the problem is I can grab a new MB and be ready in case it becomes a more common issue. If this video helped anyone you owe it to this guy to subscribe and use his amazon link, I will be!! Not only was this amazingly helpful, there was not 20 adds to skip through.

One of the best teaching videos and teacher I have ever seen. Excellent, and I want to watch more, even if I don't need to. Thank you.

Add this video to one more reason why KZread is great. Thanks for the great video. Good quality. Detailed and well edited. Thank you. You helped someone in need today!!!

Thanks for this video. I looked at about 4 others to find possible answers to my blower continuously running and checked all the things recommended. None worked for me. This video was the only one that mentioned the fan relay and rapping gently on it to loosen a possibly stuck contact. Sure enough, that was my problem. All is well now. I'll be looking to find a replacement relay. Meanwhile, if it sticks again, I know what to do. This young man is the best!!

You are an amazing teacher! Your explanations are simple but thorough, your hand gestures help the viewer understand and you give a close-up example of the parts for each reason…and notes! You are the best. Thank you so much!

Man, this was an excellent video. I know nothing about air conditioning or air handlers but I could follow along easily. I know you are teaching via You Tube and it's very much appreciated.

Reason number 4.Tripped flame rollout switch, thank you my good man. In fact it has inspired me to watch the video you made dedicated just for that topic alone. Keep doing what you are doing and once again we all thank you!

I love your lessons, the way you teach I understand. Excellent Job

I think this is a great video! Easy to understand and he is very personable, knowledgeable and knows what he's doing! Thanks for the help!

Very clear and concise - Excellent! One of the. Best fix it videos I’ve ever watched. You certainly know your business and I’m sure your business must be very busy.

Best channel ever. This video saved me big time . My heat was out for 2 days tried everything to figure out . And turn out to be my high limit switch was stuck in the open position, tapped it a few timed and my furnace started working again and said me money insteadof calling someoneto fix it.. thank you so much for making these videos and keep up the good work helping people

Great video. Ran into a fan relay on an electric furnace that was sticking and I replaced it. That call made me interested in watching some videos on the subject. Thanks again for the great content! You and AC Service Tech are my favorite service channels!

Dude....you are just the "fix" I needed today....nice accent and awesome haircut..and all that comes with ac/heating knowledge!

Thank you so much!!! You saved me a ton of money on a service call. My thermostat was bad, easy fix. Really appreciate that you posted this!

Thank you! Spent a couple of weeks trying to figure this out and your video helped me fix the problem!

Very informative video explained very simply- even to those with no knowledge of the topic...(quick, precise, and actually kinda entertaining!) I was able to fix my problem with your help just a few minutes in! Keep up the good work!

The screwdriver knock is all it took for mine! Thanks for sharing such invaluable advice!!! You have saved me a lot of money and time 😍

Very informative and knowledgeable. Your dad’s right you do you use your hands a lot but that’s OK you’re explaining things better than anyone else on this channel ! Subscribed and smashed the lake button every time I watch

If you have a humidifier attached to your furnace your fan will keep running to maintain the desired humidity level. Learned that when we replaced our old furnace & upgraded our humidifier. You gave great info & explained it precisely.

Hey man you’re very good, I’ve been doing AC for over 18 years you keep impressing me you cover every detail, you are a very good instructor you have impressed me, your are the first in 10 years, I’ve like that you cover just about every corner. I have guys calling me for help all the time, well I’m going to tell them to watch your videos, EXCELLENT WORK my friend

You saved me a visit from AC tech. Yesterday with my AC not turning on, the tech had to replace the Condenser Contactor. Great, ac then works. Then this morning, I saw that the blower fan would not stop despite temp desired having been reached. I then realized that your very 1st troubleshooting item of the fan being on instead of on Auto was the culprit! So I do not need another visit from my AC tech, who had left the fan setting on. Thanks again!

Thanks, man! I couldn't figure it out. Thought it was furnace control switch and changed it. Then I was going to change control board but checked the green and red first, like you said. Thank you again, and thank you Jesus! Saved me 300 bucks.

Tripped flame roll out switch was the cause of my fan continuously blowing. This video helped me out and educated me. Awesome job and thank you for your videos.

Awesome! You saved us at 6:39 with the flame rollout switch needing to be reset. Thank you!!

Literally just whacked at the control board a couple times and the thing started working....YOU ARE A GENIUS!

I'd shop for a control board if I was you. If it did that once, then it will probably happen again soon. That's the way that sort of problems go. I did the whack treatment (I call it "the fonzerelli") to a gas valve 6mo ago and the customer still has heat. They were cheap and chose not to order a new one. The older the component, the more luck you'll have with the shock treatment.

Fantastic help Jay! I also had a struck high limit switch and the wacking did the trick!!! Many thanks from a cold spring evening in Minnesota.

Thank you! I love your videos and the way you show and explain in more detail. Very good, thanks!

Just watched your video and five minutes later everything is fixed and working, you just saved me a ton of money by switching to KZread😂😂 Awesome video and thank you so much!!

You sir are awesome!!!! I haven’t had heat the last couple days here in upstate New York, where the temperature has been 7F degrees during the day. From the beginning, I thought it was the high limit switch but couldn’t find it. Thanks to your video showing it, I tapped on it with a screwdriver and now it works! Thank you 🙏

On my 25 year old Carrier, the Limit Roll-Out Switch was open. I unplugged one red wire and connected it to the other red wire and everything works perfectly. Ordering a new switch. The filter was clogged and we burn lots of white candles in the wintertime. The filter was the problem. Thank you for pointing out the candle use problem! Great video!!

THANKS! I did get my unit to start turning off THANKS to your easy to follow instructions. Money saved💃🏿👏🏿

Another to add to your list. I had a mid efficient furnace (Carrier) with the blower fan running all the time. Turned out there was a loss of power (power outage) and because the thermostat was calling for heat when the power came back on it the board wouldn't reset. I needed to turn off power to the furnace and then turn off the thermostat (lower temp) and then turn power back on and then raise thermostat. All worked.

From Steve. I learned a lot from you. Thank you. I got my fan to stop. I took my thermostat cover off, I put it back on, and my fan stopped. Thanks 😊

This guy is very articulate. This is the best video I have seen!!!

What a helpful video with easy to follow instruction, illustration. The expert here is so easy to listen and follow. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this, you just saved me a service call! My issue turned out to be the 3A fuse on my control board. So far, it has not popped again, so hoping I don't have to chase a short. Great video!

I started to go through the possibilities one by one. But what did the trick was the gurgling when the fan kicked on. I was getting an F5 error (Continuous Fan) on a Goodman furnace. After draining the gurgling water from the fan shroud, and beating on the high limit switch I was back in business. Most excellent video. Thank you very much.

16:55 I just wanted to say thank you! After watching this video, I was able fix my unit by replacing the motor run capacitor for less than $9.00! I so appreciate you and the information you share.

Much appreciated on the tips - Very helpful and well explained on the possible things to check. I know you said the reasons were not in order - but if you were ever to edit/re-shoot - do the codes first before the other checks. btw - enjoyed your talk in the end. Your presentation is good.

Great video! House was getting down toward 60 degrees and was wondering if we would have heat tonight. Found out my rollout switch was tripped. It's working now. tomorrow I will check the intake and exhaust, but the key is we aren't going to suffer tonight. Thank you!

Are you talking about a high limit switch that will not allow the heater to work? I've had limit switches go bad but the blower still worked amd shut off with no problem Of in heat mode it will not shut off because the house will not warm up so the thermostat can kill tje blower.

I’ve narrowed down to the relay board, and unplugged and reseated the connections and it worked to stop the fan from remaining on. But after turning heat on and then off, the blower fan resumed its problem again :( . The only way to get the fan to operate normally is in heater mode which it will shut off automatically after temperature is reached. Any insights will be appreciated.

Super informational video... I have one for you. Everything was running perfectly. Fan turns on and off with the ac or heat. This was with the original emerson thermostat. I installed a nest. I connected common wire to board in the unit. I hooked everything up as the manual said. And now the nest will not control the fan. The fan runs constantly. Everything else works. I then removed the nest and re installed the old thermostat and everything was good again. Any ideas?

Fantastic! So easy to follow and understand, I ohmed out the green and red wires and discovered I had connected both the thermostat and A/C wires together. Thanks so much, your videos on central A/C have also been a huge help to me (and my neighbors, saving us big $$).

watched the video and then went and pulled the face cover off the recently installed honeywell digital thermostat and the incessantly running furnace fan stopped....i was able to reposition the errant {installed in the 90s} non green {blue} thermostat wire to the "G" lug and the furnace fan stopped immediately...works perfectly now...saved alot of time and frustration....Thanx

Wow big help! I had a stuck relay and couldn't figure it out. A couple taps with the screwdriver and cycles perfectly now!

God bless you man! Great video, I have my fan running all the time, maybe the thermostat is bad , I will check that tomorrow, 33 degree outside.✌🏻

This guy is the best Solved my problem with the first 4 answers. Probably tapping limit switch, or the flame roll out reset button solved my issues.

Had fan stuck on high, Goodman 3 ton system, Honeywell 8000 thermostat. Tech visit no help as a new control board not available and backordered for at least a month. Was concerned about high electrical draw and fan lasting that long. 8000 installer set-up booklet details how to do a system reset to original factory settings. Did this, and it fixed the problem. Try this first.

great video ! you got me to fix my continually running fan today ! checked everything in order of the video, and it was ( i'm guessing ) a stuck "K3" realy on the PCB . a few taps and now the fan isn't running all the time . as an auto mechanic i am around tons of relays and i know i am living on borrowed time , but you saved me a service call toady ! THANKS !

My limit switch was not working but after i purchased and installed a new one it was doing the same thing. I checked all the other reasons that you had listed but still same issue. Finally i took my meter and found that one of the wires from the board to the limit switch was bad at the (what looked like a fused end before the terminal connector) i cut that out installed terminal connector and it was fixed. Thank you for putting me on the right track, great videos.

Thank you saved me a lot of money, flame sensor ($8 Part) fix was very easy! There's a lot of people who can't do the fix were your business is needed.

Just want to take a minute to thank you and thank you KZread. I fixed my furnace, Probably saved $500 - $1500. Control board was blinking 3x and induction fan kept going on and off itself. Armstrong furnace. I’ll explain the price range shortly. But it’s your video and another video that really helped after watching about 10 videos! You and this other person explained it very well. With that basic knowledge and understanding of functions, I was able to isolate the problem. Thanks again, read on for details :) If you have the will and ability to problem solve and research, it will save you a lot of money. So $600, the technician said was my problem, the control board. I said all you have to do is unplug and plug things, I can do that myself but since you’re here can u give me a better price. And the key question, “is this going to fix it?” I understand the answer, but I don’t like it, “we will only know once we do it”. I felt this was a fix but will lead to other issues/charges. So I paid their trip/diagnostic charge, thank u. I bought and swapped the control board myself. Control Board only $125. Dedicated about a day to educate myself. Found out, it was NOT the control board, so I have a spare now, in case. Turned out to be a short in my thermostat wires. Lucky for me it was right where the furnace was, I don’t know if the installer or other technicians that came before & did this on purpose but there was an open wire touching the side of the furnace. This is the furnace side close to the wall, so it was kind of tucked in between. I felt wow this is HVAC milk money, like a shady ponzi mechanic. But then again, there’s a slight chance it was random. Also want to mention the companies that I called are all 4-5 star, google reviews with many reviews.

I'm an HVAC tech (not backwoods self taught- accredited HVAC school grad) this is somewhat common for the vibration of equipment to cause chaffing and rubbing of wires. This is why there is a Romex coming through the housing of the furnace, also thermostat wires coming through housing has a plastic tabbed bushing to help prevent this. There are unscrupulous companies, just like mechanics, who do some shady things sadly.

You are just amazing!! You video just help to resolve my 'Stuck High Limit Switch" problem on my furnace!!

Great Video, after changing my induced draft blower motor my main blower was stuck in constant ON & it turned out to be tripped high limit switch.

OMG, I was ready to get ac serviced. I watched this video and followed instruction to make sure your thermostat is on auto for fan and not on a speed setting. I checked and it was on med/ hi so I put it on the auto setting and the blower finally stopped. Thank you so much.

My G wire and Red wire were not insulated and were close to each other but not touching. I insulated both and problem resolved. You saved me lots of money. It does not surprise me that you are willing to help others. I love Greek people and food!

The information was helpful I had a stuck limit switch now it's working thank you

Thank you. Used your troubleshooting steps. I had a stuck high limit switch. Just like you recommended, a little wack and the switch reset.

Thank u for making the this video ….i went to a trade school and never got a chance to practice , and so I can extra appreciate your teaching style .

Thank you for your very informative video. I changed the batteries for my thermostat and the fan kept blowing; since I always leave my fan switch on auto I did not think of checking it until I watched your video. The other videos I saw never mentioned to check the fan switch. You saved me a call to a technician👍

So I was surfing the net trying to figure out why my ac air handler wasn't shutting off when set temperature was reached. My searches came up with a multitude reasons and I became increasingly concerned over which component(s) could possibly be the cause. Well I came across your video, and the first cause you mentioned was the actual problem. Thank you so much for posting your your super helpful how-to video!

I'd like to add one more! Well, it's really a variation of #8 (Shorted Wires), but my symptoms were not exactly as he described so I'll tell you what I discovered. I'm a home DIYer, and after watching this video I was still stuck, so I called my local HVAC guy. He helped me trouble-shoot over the phone, and here's what we found. CONDITIONS: All-electric furnace (heat pump) and a/c unit. Fan set on Auto, Thermostat control (Cool, Off, Heat) set on OFF! SYMPTOMS: Furnace blower came on in the middle of the night (freaky!). TESTS: Completed all of the tests in the video that pertain to my all-electric unit. I unplugged the motor wire from my control board so that I could listen to the relay switch without the fan actually turning on and off. Every time I flipped the shut-off breaker for the furnace I could hear the relay, so I knew my relay was opening and closing, but that meant it closed any time there was power to the board. So something was calling for power from the R wire. One by one, I started disconnecting wires from the control board until I discovered the Y wire (a/c cooling unit) was the culprit. Here's where I got stuck because I couldn't find anything online that mentioned this. So I called my HVAC guy and he said this meant my Y wire had shorted out somehow to the R wire or another source of power. He said this was probably at the outside unit and suggested it was likely either the Defrost Control Board or rodents. Yes....mice. :) RESULTS: So I went outside and pulled the cover off the a/c unit and--sure enough--there was a lovely large MOUSE NEST built in between all the wire connections! As I cleaned it out she scurried away...then I found the babies. I've got pictures--send me a message if you want to see them. :) So this explains the sudden fan activation in the middle of the night. Momma Mouse had chewed extensively on each of the wires, creating a massive mess. So I cleaned it out, plugged the mouse's access hole, stripped and reconnected all the wires, and I'm back in business!

Thanks for the tubetorial! Going to grab my multimeter and I'll let you know what happens but great vid and info. The camera work is great and easy to follow you.

When switch it in ON mode . I am getting hot air and fan runs and automatically both heater and fan gets off when room temperature goes high .then automatically switches on .. My control system is manual .. When I change the switch to off mode .. the heater gets Off but the fan continues RUNS.. What is the problem?

High limit switch hit with a screwdriver and I’m back up and running, great video thank you!

Thank you so much for your video. I found what MY issue was within the first minute of your instruction. I live in a very old building and my thermostat dial is the old fashioned round dial. One day I went to turn the heat down and I must have hit the auto fan to on with my pinky finger by accident. It was driving me crazy figuring out what had happened so quickly that would have made the fan continuously blow. The worse part is that the auto fan is on the far right of the dial and the heat and cool is on the left. So in the beginning, I figured that's what I might have done, but forgot to look on the right of the dial. What a dummy!!! LOL Thanks again for your help!!!

Thank you very much! Your video helped me fix my heater, now my house is nice and warm!!!

Thank sir. You just saved me $100.00 for a specialist visit plus labor work. It was my High Limit switch. I just hit it with the back of a screw driver and it worked. Thank you so much, God bless!

Another reason could be the limit could be actually touching the heat exchange, probably not but possible. Love your videos man i learn a lot from you

Had this same call today but it was a heat pump.... after troubleshooting the system I found the new T-Stat that was installed by the home owner was faulty...with the thermostat fan set to auto and the system set to off I still had continuity going from R to G, after replacing the T-stat everything worked as usual.
