Goodman Janitrol Venter Blower squeals and stops.

[tommytx]

I have a venter blower motor that is worn and when it stops it will not restart unless you give it a push manually. Apparently its is a high failure item as I have seen posts here describing the need for lubrication and such after 3 or 4 years.

As long as it runs its ok, but when it stops due to correct temperatrue, it will not restart without a push… but once running its ok..

Here is my question: If I hard wire the venter blower to run 24×7, will it be bypassing any safety devices. I would only run it this way until I can get a new motor,

Any thoughts suggestions.

Depending on the wiring of some machines, running the vent before there is a call for heat would prevent the burner from firing, as the pressure switch moves from one position to the other when the pressure changes from atmospheric to negative.

Yes, you really have to find out the MAKE and MODEL to get good answers. There IS more than one machine made.
