Hey everyone I have a little over a year old p43 and it was and is running great but I noticed that the distribution blower works good on low and you can hear the go up when you put it to medium but anything above medium it doesn't change. Any ideas on what it could be? Just started doing this probably this week.

It doesn't actually say medium but its half way between high and low. So I just call it medium.
But on high it doesn't seem to be as loud or have the push behind it as it did before.
Interesting. Mine's going on year 6 & never had an issue. Hopefully someone else will chime in...

Hello, I have a P38+ with the older style board. I am not familiar with the board on the P43. A friend of mine at work has a P38+ about the same age as mine 6 years and he had that problem about 2 years ago and he went through everything, replaced the ESP and it did not help. Then after more research he found a seller on ebay that sold the potentiometers for the P38 board. He ordered them (2) and I replaced them for him. One was for the distribution blower and the other was for the feed. The person selling them on Ebay said that over time they can develop dead spots. I believe that they are 50K potentiometers. I hope this helps.
