hi michael it does have a capacitor on it

I don't know if it is the same fault that I had with my Friendly Format 80E, but that one required one of the TWO PCB's being replaced (beleive there is was the ignition one, and not the main one).

Sounds a similar problem, which meant that it ran the pump, but never ignited nor ran the fan to start up.

Hi, does the fan have a capacitor on it? If it does this may be your fault!

If you can get to the fan an turn it, does it continue to turn electrically? This is also a Capacitor problem. It will need replacing!

Be aware that if you have powered the fan for a long period of time without it turning it can become damaged

It may just be the Relay How do you know there is nopower to fan?
