While we were at Dothan the night it got to 28* our Solair quit. We dug out more blankets and elec heater and made it thru the night. Motor would run but no click on the sail switch so it would pop the reset. Seems everything in the furnace can be replaced in the coach except the sail switch and blower motor. The sail switch is in the blower housing. Good news is it is in the air intake housing. I could look in the air intake and see the blower motor and wires to the sail switch. Beating and banging and poking did not help. I took shop air and blew into the intake toward the blower motor and a dark cloud went enerywhere. Has fired up every time since. I thought of adding a filter to the intake but there is a label saying "this furnace is designed to be used without a filter". Guess I`ll just blow it out every 30 years or so as needed.
