    I had a similar problem. Mine was a gas heater. The little fan (induction motor?) shit out. AC guy who was always good to us and honest came out and sprayed WD-40 on it and said it’ll get you through the year, which it did, but it failed after that. He said it would be $800 to replace but I didn’t have it. Found a replacement on Amazon for $45 and watched a YouTube tutorial and fixed it no problem. Check that if it sounds like your problem and you’re handy or someone you know is. Saved me $750 and I never had an issue again.

    That little fan is what brings fresh air into the system because gas or whatever so if it fails the system will shut down because of safety.
