Front furnace not working

Last trip out, we used the furnaces quite a bit (temps in upper 30s) then went back to a/c a few days later. Tried to start the front furnace last week and it wouldn’t work. The red light comes on the panel but nothing happens. The back furnace works fine. Fuse at panel is good. Any ideas on where to start are appreciated.

2018 Force. Outside temps were in the upper 30s when we first noticed it wasnt working. We have tried it several times in 60 degree temps but it still doesn't come on. We thought because we kept trying it may have tripped something that needs to be reset?

Are you using the heat pumps or the propane furnace? Or do you have the aqua hot system?

That's right... the aqua hot has to be on for the furnace. Good point. You may want to check the reset switch on the aqua hot. Mine clicked off and I just to reset it.


Opps, scratch that... you said the rear was working.

Sorry.

Force does not have the Aqua-hot. That is a DX3 and up thing. Force will have a Suburban LP furnace.

Well, you know how DX3 snobs are. 🤣

Good to know. When we originally started looking at super C’s, we almost bought a force and the salesman said if we wait till the 18’s come out, we can go all electric with the auqahot.

Misinformed....
