Hi, I am having some problems with my room blower. Stove comes on and goes through check all fans working. When the stove comes up to temp the room blower comes on, but it's barely spinning any ideas on what could be causing it? I have another motor and it is doing the same thing.
Thanks
 
Take an old lamp cord and hook it to the motor and plug into outlet, verify it works correctly on line voltage then we can get into it deeper

I will check it out in the morning. Assuming that it does work on line voltage, what would be the next thing to check?
 
You can use a multimeter to check the voltage from the board.

Update, it was the proof of fire that went bad and the stove is back to normal.
Thanks
 
Very good! Glad it’s working again!
