So over the winter mice got into the heater through the blower and FILLED the kettle full of insulation and acorns. It took me a while to determine that's what was going on but when I did I completely disconnected the heater and brought it into the garage. The heater was up against the house so working in the garage made life easier and I could work after dark. Since the heater was originally installed in 2010, I figured I might as well do some preventative maintenance (maybe the real mistake) so I ordered Stack Flue Sensor, Thermistor, Pressure Switch, Hi Limit Switch 135°F, Gas Shutoff Switch 140°F, Igniter and a new orifice for the blower (mice chewed themselves a bigger opening in the grate and that's how they got into the blower). I also bought some 1/4" wire mesh and did a DYI mouse proof job on the heater as a whole.
As I'm attaching the last part on the heater in the garage (side panel that was facing the house) I notice the sticker that says MasterTemp 250. I could have sworn it was a 400.
Question #1: I surmised that the sensors I ordered and installed should be the same for both. They all fit fine and flow is flow, temp is temp, etc. Am I correct?
Question #2: When I now fire up the heater, the blower blows, gas flows (watching the natural gas gauge on the house). I think I'm hearing a click from the igniter (I'm not sure) but eventually the blower stops with a service heater light. I don't get any sensor indicator warning lights on the back of the control board...but I do get 3 red blinks from the Fenwall reporting "ignition lockout". Do I need to tear the whole thing apart again and put the old igniter back?
