Trane has had some issues with combustion motors on some units.
Hi Dave,
The motor is bad, it has shorted internally winding to winding causing it to run continuously.
You must replace the motor.
Do you have a local contractor to call for this service?
Good Luck,

A man who says that he can't learn anything in a class is exactly right.
Might want to actually diagnose the motor and power circuit before replacing any parts..
We dont even know what model unit he has, it was just a guess that it was a Voyager.
model ysc036airm12d propane fuel i replaced motor. all safeties120 v0lt and closed control supplies 120 volt to both leads to motor. only way i could get motor to stp would be to disconnect 1 power lead to motor any ideas?
Yes.
Get a good commercial tech out to look at it.
Trane did have some service bulletins on combustion motors and associated parts.

Allens right the motor is shorted internally winding to winding, i've seen this at least 5 times. use an ohm meter to check windings you'll see whats going on, the assembly for this is around ********** thats the discounted price if you have an account. you can always let it go until it fails....trane always has these motor assemblies in stock. good luck
Pricing not allowed, please.

forgot to mention check the ignition board there should be a rly that sends the other leg of power to the inducer motor make sure its stuck shut
you unplug it during the summer
You should refrain from giving unprofessional advice like this.
The OP needs to have the unit repaired correctly and not have to plug and unplug a motor seasonally.
There are a couple of different things that could cause the problem and it requires a professional to diagnose it.

Wouldn't get your hopes up about warranty, and those assemblies aren't cheap. The motor is bad. The issue began about 5 years ago. Most have been replaced but I recently ran across one that someone apparently has been unplugging every summer and plugging back in during the winter for the last 5 years.
Officially, Down for the count

I know enough to know, I don't know enough
Why is it that those who complain the most contribute the least?
MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS. POVERTY CAN'T BUY ANYTHING
Just replaced one today ,there also is a addditional relay and wiring that the trane dealer will charge to prevent motor from shorting again.
They were covering the repairs for awhile, but I believe that time has long passed.
