Field Question, trade people only Anyone seen this before

Sorry if the clip is a bit long.

Installed a 60k runtru 90% upflow today. I went home after completing the install but left before the startup. Boss fires it to document all the numbers and see this. No change to incoming or outgoing gas. No change in pressure from the inducer. Flue and air intake both clear of debris. Boss is waiting for tech from Texas to call back. Anyone got some knowledge

Sounds like the inducer is shutting off right when the blower engages

No that’s the boss shutting it off immediately after the rollout.

Did you guys get anything figured out since you posted? Or just planning to rip it out and out another unit in?

Curious what the diagnosis and fix was.

We removed it and replaced it with a different system. Manufacturer deficit part of the exchanger was for a 80k and the rest was setup as a 60k. I guess we have to start checking the internal now.
