Water heater won't turn on? Before you call a plumber or buy a new unit, check your power vent motor. That blinking light might just mean your motor bearings dried up.
In this video, I show you how to diagnose and fix a seized power vent motor on a power-vented water heater. A little oil on the bearings got mine spinning again in under 30 minutes — saving me from a $2,000+ replacement.
🔧 What's covered:
0:12 - Blinking light = power vent problem
0:36 - Why your water heater shuts off (safety feature)
0:59 - Unplugging and removing the power vent
3:28 - Finding the seized motor
3:49 - Testing the bearings
4:13 - Oiling the motor bearings
6:00 - Reassembling the power vent
8:22 - Reinstalling and reconnecting
10:14 - Testing - will it ignite?
10:37 - Success! Water heater running again
11:50 - Why I'm not replacing the whole unit ($100 vs $2,000+)
⚠️ Safety note: Power vent systems exist to protect your home. Never bypass these safety features.
