    We're back down to 4. Forecast low of 7-8, so :dex::picard::shiver:

    ETA: so now the forecast is the current temp. Wonder how many times that'll happen. :rofl: :lol:

    What about the motor?

    Did you have to change it out or was it something else like a frosted over gas line regulator vent?

    It ended up being the syncronizers on the heating coils. They have a little 24v heater in them but only 21 v was going in so they were froze up. Turns out when the town made the switch to 208v service, no one switched the HVACs over. Just needed to move a wire on the transformer from the 240v output to the 208 side and we had 24 volts and the syncs thawed out.
