Need help diagnosing my non-working gas wall heater.?Hello, I live in Arizona so we just tried to use our gas wall heater for the first time tonight (hasn't been necessary before now).  This is the type of heater we have installed in our hallway/bedroom. /buy/williams-monterey-50-000-btu-natural-gas-top-vent-wall-furnace-5009622.html#.UJ-qvYaElhE I lit the pilot and then moved up to the thermostat that is mounted on the wall.  I moved the dial from the left (which starts at 50) over to the far right (which stops at 90).  I felt and heard the thermostat click over at about the 65 degree mark (which seems accurate to me), but nothing happens.  Usually, immediately after the thermostat clicks over, the gas flow increases, and the heater starts to do its thing. I have included some pictures of the thermostat, and heater itself.  If someone could tell me which connections I need to check with a volt meter, it would be greatly appreciated. One thing I want to add, we had a light socket go out on the same wall about a month ago, that doesn't seem to be getting any power. 

I have tried several new bulbs and it doesn't work.  So I would need to figure out how to check if the thermostat is even getting power as well.  It's possible that the thermostat isn't even getting power. Thanks SOLVED:  Thanks everyone for your replies.  It actually was the solenoid inside of the heater, but the good news is it works fine, a wire just came loose.  Everything is working great now.  I wouldn't have thought to look there if it wasn't for your comments.  Are you looking for a company that can repair your gas or oil furnace?

my house starts acting up. Sometimes, when the thermostat "calls for heat", the burner will ignite and then go out within a few seconds. The ignition control module will try to start the furnace again, and the burner might stay lit for the normal duration. period of a few months the situation degrades to the point where almost every time the furnace tries to start, the flame goes out On this furnace, the problem is the flame sensor... it develops a thin coating of clear or whitish deposits that insulate the sensor from the flame, so the ignition control module doesn't receive the signal that the flame is actuallyWithout that signal, the control module shuts off the gas valve and then tries starting the furnace again. If 3 to 5 attempts don't succeed in lighting the flame, the control module will wait for one hour and then try again. That's an hour where the house has no heat, and if subsequent attempts to light the furnace fail, it can get

The "070" in the furnace model number refers to the heating capacity, which in this case is 70,000 BTU's per hour. measure of the natural gas input, not theAmana claims that this furnace is 80% efficient, so that results in a heat output of 56,000 BTU's per hour. That seems like a small furnace, but it actually does a good job of heating my 1,500 square foot house... considering the house has several old drafty windows and measly R-8 fiberglass in the walls. Before doing anything, I turned off the power switch on the side of the furnace. Then I removed the upper access panel. Like many furnaces, this Amana furnace has an upper and lower access cover. The lower cover exposes To prevent furnace operation with the lower

cover removed, there is a cut-off switch (like the switch that turns on the light in your fridge) behind the lower cover panel. There is no such switch for the upper access panel, so it is possible to operate the furnace with the cover off. But it's not recommended to run the furnace with the cover removed.
