John Wood gas water heater started but soon as main gas kicked in, it runs for few seconds and stops, using Honeywell WV4464B1037 controller; three blinking led light indicated "Pressure switch failed open". Problem fixed.

Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for showing me how easy it is to fix the pressure switch! It worked perfectly and I felt confident I could do it. I was so nervous to try but when you showed me to unplug first and turn off gas valve I had confidence I could do it! I also liked the way you got right to the point. I’d tried 3 other videos before yours and they dragged on forever and were too confusing! Thanks again 👍🏼

Thanks for posting this video. I followed your troubleshooting tips and it was definitely a plugged copper nipple causing the problem (where the rubber hose connects to from the pressure switch)! Everything worked fine after cleaning the nipple and reassembling everything!

This was exactly my problem. Just took off the hose and blew through it to clear out any debris, and it worked fine. Plugged it back in and it started right away. I like to fix most things myself (or at least attempt it), but always get nervous around gas-operated items that I'm not familiar with. This video made me feel confident to approach this problem. Thanks so much!

You were spot on, I took and blew through it and sucked just fine, but it still had a little piece of plastic in it making it not work, i used a paperclip to clear the copper fitting and it's heating fine now. Thank you very much.

This must be for the 2 blink code. I had the 3 blink code and this is what worked for me… Pressure Switch for a Richmond Power Vent is located in the Blower Hood, Remove the Hood from the top of the water heater, take off the 3 screws on the side panel (NOT THE TOP WHERE IT STATES DO NOT TAKE APART) You'll see the valve with the square hose on it, remove the hose and take a partially bent paper clip, slide it thru the hole to the fan until it pokes thru, scrape back an forth to remove any debris, also try to run it about an inch up the valve, place the black square tube on to the nipple which you cleaned out going to the fan and blow on it, if you can now blow thru it should work, connect the other end to the valve and reassemble being sure to tighten the clamps to the pipe heading outside. Turn on furnace and it should now work.
