Answered by:
Billy AKA billy1961

I know this question has been posed here a couple of times, but I'm still a bit unclear. I am replacing my Honeywell S86H Pilot Module with a Honeywell S8610U3009. This is going on my Burnham Gas Boiler. On the new module (S8610U) there is a terminal connection marked TH-W which is not present on my old module (S86H). I was told to take the 24V cable and split it so that it goes into both the 24V terminal, and the TH-W terminal on the new module.

 

THE 24V GEOUND IS 24 V COMMON AND YOU DO NOT WANT THE WHITE WIRE GOING THERE AS IT WILL BE A DIRECT SHORT, THE WHITE WIRE IS ELECTRICALLY HOT IT IS FROM THE THERMOSTAT, IT IS NEVER TO BE OUT TO A GROUND, 24 V COMMON IS FINE TO GROUND AS IT IS GROUNDED AT THE TRANSFORMER VERY OFTEN.

 
BILLY
Is this the correct procedure? Also, does it make a difference which cable (red or white) goes in to the 24V(GND) terminal and 24V terminal?
YES, THE 24 VOLT COMMON GOES TO 24V GND

 LOOK AT BILLY ASK IDIOTIC QUESTION, HE IS A MAGAZINE MECHANIC UNABLE TO ANSWER WITHOUT HIS ARCHIVED ACCEPTED ANSWERS WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE OF THEORY AS EVIDENCED SO OFTEN NO WAY HE COULD TROUBLESHOOT EFFECTIVELY


WHILE THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF POWER 24V HOT  FROM THE 24V COMMON IS SENT TO THE THW TERMINAL

Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
The red and white you mention..is that the "y" splice to feed 24v and TH-W?
Billy

PATHETIC!

Customer replied 2 days and 3 hours ago.

Well the red and white are two wires that used to go to the 24V(1) and 24V(2) terminals on my old S86H. I assume that they need to go to the 24V(grnd) and 24V terminals with one of them "y" spliced to go to the TH-W terminal as well. I am just not sure which one to splice.

Billy replied 2 days and 1 hours ago.

White is common and red will be 24v which is the one to splice. If you have a meter you can test but as long as everyone followed the color code, red is the wire to splice.


WOW  ALLEGED EXPERT BILLY EVIDENCES ANOTHER IMBECILE POSTING OF INCOMPETENCE!
HE CLEARLY NEVER WAS A TECHNICIAN! HE THINKS COMMON CANNOT BE GROUNDED, HE CANT WIRE A FAN MOTOR OR COMPRESSOR WITHOUT QUOTING VER BATIM CUT N PASTING, HE HAS NO IDEA THE COMMON AND RUN TERMINALS ARE WHERE THE LEGS OF POWER GO!  HE RUNS LINE 1 TO RUN AND RUNS LINE 2 TO THE CAPACITOR! LOL  IGNORING COMMON
HE HAS BURNT OUT SEVERAL CUSTOMERS BOARDS AND MOTORS OVER THE LAST 4 MONTHS, THE FUNNY THING IS HE GETS RATED BY CUSTOMERS WHO ARE CLUELESS AS TO WHAT THEY GOT WAS ACCURATE, WHICH IT USUALLY IS SINCE HE USES ARCHIVED ANSWERS, HOWEVER WHENEVER THE NEED TO DEMONSTRATE EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE WITH WIRING HE MUST RESEARCH AND QUOTE THE DIAGRAM  HE HAS NO GRASOP OF THEORY WHATSOEVER, ANYONE WHO DOES NOT KNOW COMMON IS GROUNDED IS A MAGAZINE MECHANIC!

 
 

 

THIS IS WRONG, IF YOU SPLICE THE 24V HOT LEG IT WILL BE HOT CONTINUOUSLY,  WHITE IS ELECTRICALLY RED 24 V HOT LEG,  THE WAY BILLY SAYS WILL BE A DIRECT SHORT

Im sorry, but its kind of new to me answering questions I love to make the repairs by hand but im trying to get better online where I cant see the unit so don't feel bad at least you are willing to try.
I really beleive the transformer is bad if you happened to short the common wire for tstat,or the control board is bad.

I really believe the transformer is bad if you happened to short the common wire for tstat

------------------------------------------------

3 JustAnswer.com, Pearl.com experts saying you short a transformer by grounding the common leg.
The transformers 24v common leg is grounded at the transformer! not on just this but on every unit! this is ridiculous they do not realize this and say this evidencing the expertise is poor on JustAnswer.com aka Pearl.com for HVAC!
THE 24V  COMMON IS GROUNDED AS IT IS ON EVERY UNIT!


Jerry :
I am not extremely versed in the zoned systems, but this wiring looks like it is a stand alone system.


billy

I am leaning towards the new EIM you got was faulty if you have everything wired as instructions show,that buzz just should not be there.The VA is volt amps that a transformer is rated at  inside the furnace where the 40 va is .but it seems unlikely that the EIM is causing the need for a larger capacity transformer.
I do believe you need a new EIM but it is possible the old transformer is weak.
if you have an amprobe you can twist your w wire going to furnace around a screw driver ten loops pull the screw driver out and hang the amprobe around the wire turn the unit on when the call for heat begins read the amps it draws if anything close to .40 replace the transformer.Its the unit of electrical load being used you know if the full load was being used that the transformer produces,it would blow the fuse in the furnace control board or overheat the transformer.



THIS IS SO PATHETIC  A TRANSFORMER IS RATED BY VA's THIS MUCH RPEN GOT RIGHT, HOWEVER A 40 VA RATED TRANSFORMER WILL HANDLE

40VA/ 24 VOLTS = 1.66 AMPS!!!  NOT .40
FOR CONTINUOUS SUBTRACT 20% SO 1.3 aMPS IS THE ACTUAL MAX RATED LOAD A 40 VA TRANSFORMER WILL HANDLE CONTINUOUSLY

THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
A 10 WRAP LOOP IS  NOT REEQUIRED IF YOU USE PROPER SETTINGS
OR A DIGITAL AMP METER!

Expert:  Billy replied

This unit has no E terminal for what we classify a emergency heat. But it does use the electric heat. In the TH6220 this requires putting a jumper between E and Aux terminals.
I have to go offline for the evening. But if you have further questions I will gladly pick them up in the morning.

Kenzz is incapable of being an expert, he was banned from Craigslist!

AUTHOR: Old Pro - (USA)

POSTED: Sunday, November 08, 2015

This fellow "Kenzz" is an example of why Craigslist has such a terrible reputation for trolling.

Simply Google Kenzz or search Kenzz on the Craigslist wensites discussion forums, you will find thousands of examples of Kenzz running amuck posting words yet never evidencing any expertise of his own nor demonstrating his acceptance as an expert anywhere!

The only places people like Kenzz do well or enjoy are unmoderated forums or websites where anyone can say anything about anyone without any  need to  provide evidence of their own qualifications

or what opinions expressed. Note he is not even a JustAnswer.com expert nor could he ever hope to be.

Kenzz hangs out on the Monterey RNR and has an ongoing battle with his make believe nemesis Sheila/ Aussie, in fact he has many reditt pages stalking her!

548 complaints closed with BBB in last 3 years losed ComplaintsAdvertising / Sales Issues59Billing / Collection Issues226Delivery Issues13Guarantee

AUTHOR: UsedandAbusedHumanExpert - ()

POSTED: Saturday, August 03, 2013

Over 900 filed !  and since 2008 the identical issues are mentioned, double billing and selling subscriptions to everyone and still blaming the customer as iof its their mistake, well after 5 years  and thousands of online complaints and 900+ BBB filings all with the same 3 issues, clearly the site is a carefully crafted skimming operation  which walks the line of legality while ripping off untold monies all for doing nothing month after month after month!  Many are not seeing a $60 hit and it adds up over a year or 2!  Many notice 18 months later  or longer, even more I am sure never notice it and are being bled  monthly!

Why should JustAnswer  change a thing?  it would wipe out  the profits in 1/2 just if the double billing ended!

Now if they stopped "accidentally" selling everyone a subscription too, that would really stop the monthly inflow of cash  for doing zero!

And they have no experts to share that cash with!  and they keep every cent! Sure like every legal  racket, they will refund once you hit the BBB, but look at the fact they ONLY refund this way  and thats still good fore a AAA rating!  Its a joke  as is JA  or Pearl.com as they would now like to be known as, due to the shady reputation they have under JA!

Answernest, Answerbag,  E Answers, many more, satellites, spin offs  where JA re sells archived answers  for $3 to people  and never pay the experts, in fact JA is so cheap  they call TIPS A BONUS AND TAKE SOME OF THAT TOO!

THEY provide no 1099's ever  this shows no experts  could last there or be considered captive employeees  thus require tax  forms etc!

Why disregard the factual errors noted?

AUTHOR: Heaterman in sacramento - ()

POSTED: Sunday, April 14, 2013

I find it strange the numerous verifiable factual errors made by the top experts in HVAC pointed out by the terminated expert are ignored, as are the numerous examples of his answers being chosen infuriating the older established troll expert billy  alleged mentor in HVAC that thinks grounding common 24v will blow the low voltage fuse!  Common is grounded normally!  this is so basic and evidences the truth  as does the fact they admit they are not well versed in low voltage controls!  this means everything in HVAC troubleshooting!  and precludes being an expert!
The quality of the answers evidenced and proven are completely ignored to take cheap shots to protect their bots  or Andy !

It's funny how the "experts" using real pics are usually 100 answers or less, many experts listed in HVAC are years old with 30 answers and never came back! The highest rated  experts are using the fake pics and billy is the most abusive yet immune abuser I have seen. I suspect it is an employee as it is able to respond adequately until the need for theory comes into play then the lack of experience becomes evident to those who are knowledgeable which customers are not thus the ratings are flawed.

The pictures of some Justanswer experts are available avatars to protect privacy.

This is a perfect case actually.  A peer is terminated and decides to go on a mentally challenged run of vengeance.  It is perfectly clear why avatars are used when dealing with the public.

In this case the terminated individual has began a profane, prevaricating, obscene rant with countless hours invested in trying to get even. 

Do I use an avatar?  You bet!..When you deal with a person like the one filing these reports.... it is perfectly understandable and prudent to use an profile.

This unit normally takes the RAK series stat.
But the wiring is the same for a standard stat except the reverse valve is powered by B.
Do you have 5 or 6 wire conductor run?
Billy
POOR BILLY, WHAT HE MEANS IS REVERSING VALVE ENERGIZED IN HEAT MODE, RATHER THAN THE COOL MODE AS ARE ALL UNITS BUT RHEEM/RUUD.
THE GE BILLY IS TRYING TO GIVE ADVICE ON IS NOT ENERGIZED IN HEAT MODE! THIS IS CONTRARY TO THE INDUSTRY STANDARD AND ANY ACTUAL TECHNICIAN WHO HAS DONE THIS WORK IN REALITY WOULD HAVE TO KNOW THIS! THIS IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF BILLY BEING A SUB PAR EXPERT!
YET THE MOST ABUSIVE MANIPULATIVE SUSING DIRTY TRICKS TO GET NEW EXPERTS BOOTED THAT SPANK HIM "STEALING" CUSTOMERS WHEN IT IS SIMPLY THE CUSTOMER CHOOSING WHO IS BEST NOT BY SOME PECKING ORDER! WHICH WAS OK BY JA YET INFURIATED BILLY!
I WAS WARNED BY SEVERAL EXPERTS ABOUT BILLY
AND THEY WERE RIGHT! HE WOULD POST WITH FAKE ACCT AND IP PROXIE AND DEBIT CARD AND NOT EVEN DISCUSS ANYTHING USUALLY! ONE TIME HE SAID I HATE CHAT AND LEFT 5 SECONDS AND RATED BADLY! EASILY DONE.
IF THEY ABUSE PEER REVIEWS THEY WILL SHILL AND STAT PAD TOO AS HE DOES WITH GREG KELSEY FAKE HOME INSPECTOR WHO ASKS THE SAME THING 300 TIMES TO BILLY ONLY.ALL EXCELENT RATED OF COURSE.
.
Billy saying that the TH6220 thermostat must be jumpered e to aux,see below,...


This unit has no E terminal for what we classify a emergency heat. But it does use the electric heat. In the TH6220 this requires putting a jumper between E and Aux terminals.

Peer review was a good idea, but some experts were colluding with others to eliminate
the competition that way.... on very thin pretexts.

Billy, I just returned from an out-of-town trip to find the house stifling hot. Apparently, the furnace finally decided to respond to the 75 degree setting I had left it on during testing. This situation is so baffling. When I rhen reset the thermostat to a reasonable setting, it was back in it's old routine of cycling on for a few seconds only. Apparently it is capable of working properly sometimes, without any apparent change of conditions. Having replace the board, flame sensor, and gas valve, and grounded the hell out of everything, we're no further along with this. Did you ever get a chance to forward my problem to other more experienced experts?

Hello,
Im a moderator for this topic. It seems the Professional has left this conversation. This happens occasionally, and it's usually because the Professional thinks that someone else might be a better match for your question. I've been working hard to find a new Professional to assist you with your question, but sometimes finding the right Professional can take a little longer than expected.
I wonder whether you're ok with continuing to wait for an answer. If you are, please let me know and I will continue my search. If not, feel free to let me know and I will cancel this question for you.
Thank you!

I would like an answer to my question, but I must insist that whoever takes over familiarize themselves with my previous communications on this problem as I've been struggling with this same question for SEVERAL months and do not want to cover ground I've already covered. If we can't get an answer sometime soon, I'm going to have to break down and bring in someone locally, and I don't want to have to do that.

This unit uses flame rectification,
this is a DC signal of micro amps that returns to the ignition module via the modules sense/ burner ground terminal
. It transmits the weak DC signal to the module to prove a flame exists and is safe to continue operating
. I did not see if the port on the induced draft assembly, where the induced draft proving switch's tubing connects was reamed out good? It will obstruct and cause a wavering pressure thus pop open intermittently which is difficult to spot, I don't trust the flash codes myself, as there are only several possibilities to rectify this situation .
I have a routine I use for these ,
I clean the pilot assembly's mounting brackets surface areas and the burners surface areas touching the pilot assembly mounts, basically we are making a nice conductive path to home, being the burner ground/sense terminal.
In addition I use 105C degree rated wire and connectors and run a ground wire in addition to the units grounding back to the terminal that is used for sense or burner ground, usually they are common in the circuit board.
Remember it is only transmitting the faint DC signal that passes through the flame, a flame is a poor conductor and only transmits micro amps DC and that is easily stopped by a patina or moisture or corrosion etc, it does not take much and it is easily disrupted and restored. In fact many times new components seemingly rectify an issue, often the restoration of a ground path for the flame signal is really what fixed everything and if you try the old equipment, it is operative about 40% of the time according to manufacturers. Johnson controls makes a nifty flame simulator ($24)that simulates a nice DC signal that will work on any flame rectification system! it plugs in with the existing flame proving circuit and clamps to ground with a clip, If it wont run with this, no question the boards/module is defective, assuming all limits and safeties are closed, I often bypass them to test with them jumped to see what is going on. Jumper clip the pressure switch once it has closed. For the pressure switches I use tattle tales to tell me if any control opens, even if a brief second, that is hard to spot unless gazing at it while it pops opens for 1 second , pressure switches on the threshold will waver and not be evident by watching , tattle tales have a flag that pops up if what it monitors trips or opens. You can by the and pressure switch for what a service call will be alone online and its very easy. Its not worth spending time troubleshooting parts that cost 10 minutes labor as in sensor and pressure switch and any auto reset limits. 1 yr of this is not worth this trouble, unless you had a $400 board i would swap out the pressure switch, sensor limit and module, it wont be much online and if the pressure orifice is not clogged it will run no doubt with the system refurbished. I don't just replace a board and leave old cheap components there to fail next 6 months being a free call back and cutting my profits in 1/2. If a service tech is doing sub $300 service calls much he will be fired, go broke, etc. I had bosses tell me this in the early 90's.

THE ABOVE IS ONE OF 300 FROM GREG KELSEY HOME INSPECTOR ALL AS STUPID AS THIS!





LOOK AT THE EXPERTS IDIOCY!



I am leaning towards the new EIM you got was faulty if you have everything wired as instructions show, that buzz just should not be there. The VA is volt amps that a transformer is rated at. But it seems unlikely that the EIM is causing the need for a larger capacity transformer.
I do believe you need a new EIM but it is possible the old transformer is weak.
if you have an amprobe you can twist your w wire going to furnace around a screw driver ten loops pull the screw driver out and hang the amprobe around the wire turn the unit on when the call for heat begins read the amps it draws if anything close to .40 replace the transformer. Its the unit of electrical load being used
you know if the full load was being used that the transformer produces, it would blow the fuse in the furnace control board or overheat the transformer.
rpen7111


THIS BUFFOON ALLEGED EXPERT SAYS A 40 VA RATED TRANSFORMER HANDLES .40 AMPS !
THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
24 VOLTS / 40 VA = 1.6 AMPS
- 20% FOR A CONTINUOUS RATING
= 1.3 AMPS CONTINUOUS NOT .40
THATS RIDICULOUS PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING THIS IMBECILE SAYS AFTER THIS IS SUSPECT
THIS SAME EXPERT SAID GROUNDING COMMON IS A SHORT



rpen7111 :
Hello, Im Robert Sorry you are having a problem.together we can solve it.It sounds like a ground wire safety on a capacitor is burned into or a capacitor is bad.I would look at any indoor or outdoor capacitors and see if they are ok.some high tork capacitors like on compressor start relays have a small fuse that will overheat and burn out.please let me know if this helped.


PATHETIC! I DEFY ANYONE TO SHOW ME WHERE A FUSE IS ON A CAPACITOR!!!!!!!!

rpen7111 :
its got to be a jumper wire that failed and protected a motor or compressor.If this helps please give me 3 or higher rating,thanksRobert
duihoot :
not lookiing for someone to guess at the problem you gave at least three answers
duihoot :
looking for one
rpen7111 :
YOU JUST DONT UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING I SAID WAS ONE PROBLEM IN 3 POSSIBLE MOTORS IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO TELL YOU ONE PLACE TO GO LOOK YOU NEED SOME SERVICE EXPERIENCE TO UNDERSTAND YOU ARE OUR HANDS,EYES,AND IF WE TELL YOU TO CHECK AT THE CAPACITORS THEN THATS ABOUT AS SIMPLE AS IT GETS,READ THE CAPACITORS OR AT THE POTENTIAL RELAY ON THE COMPRESSOR,OR HIRE SOMEONE TO COME OUT PLEASE HAVE A NICE AND FIND THEM FOR YOU.PLEASE HAVE A NICE DAY K,M,A ROBERT
duihoot :
really if you dont know what the error code means just say so
duihoot :
and not really wanting to kiss you a*s but thanx for the offer will let you know if i change my mind

Terminated Expert

AUTHOR: Kenzz - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, April 10, 2013

The extended ramblings and incoherent posts are simply the acts of an individual that was no longer deemed an asset to the site.  Once terminated, the individual mounted a internet campaign to slander and discredit both company and individual.

Many of the postings by this individual at other sites are profane and filled with prevarications.  The individual has went as far as stating that former peers molested his son and spent time in jail.  

Just to show what type of person this is, I am attaching a link to one of his many profane and explicit  unfounded ramblings.   http://www.chan4chan.org/topic/1435  

It is obvious when perusing the comments that the credibility and ethics of this individual are poor at best.
