Is $1,900 to replace furnace control board a fair price?
Project Details
I didn’t run the furnace for 6-8 months. I had a tech come out to do a service, and he said it looked great. I started using it the past week. A couple of days ago, it stopped working outside of running in the morning. It mostly runs at its scheduled time 5:30 AM until it reaches target temp, then it won’t run again. I have a Nest thermostat. When running test diagnoses on the Nest, it kicks on the inducer fan to start the cycle, but then no heat kicks on and it shuts off. The board LED has a healthy heartbeat. I haven’t tried directly jumping the wires. I’m starting to think possibly the Nest is a root cause here given it works on a schedule, but I really have no idea.
