Pressure Switch On A Coleman


I have a Coleman furnace not in a mobile home, the fault code says pressure switch stuck open, describe switch and location please.
I believe it's the round switch with the hose attached to it.

It looks like a Coleman pressure switch, it has terminals and a nipple or two and it's located inside the furnace.

Yes, it may well be the static switch, remove the hose from both ends then hold it up to your ear lisen to see if there is a vacumm. make sure that pitot tube at the combustion fan is not pluged. If not just test continuity at each safety swicth till you find the open one.
