The draft inducer pressure switch monitors that the combustion exhaust is properly venting. Before allowing ignition, it verifies the draft inducer motor is creating sufficient negative pressure in the flue. If pressure is inadequate, it keeps the gas valve closed - a critical safety function to prevent carbon monoxide buildup.
Difficulty: Moderate - test before replacing.
Turn off power at the disconnect switch and the circuit breaker. Verify with a non-contact voltage tester. For gas systems, turn off the gas supply valve.
Remove the access panel (2-4 screws). Locate the component inside the electrical or combustion section of the unit.
Take clear photos of every wire connection before touching anything. This is your reinstallation reference.
Disconnect wire terminals and remove mounting screws or brackets. Note the orientation of the old part for reference.
Mount the new component in the same orientation. Reconnect all wires exactly as shown in your photos. Ensure all terminals are fully seated.
Replace access panel, restore power at breaker then disconnect. Test thermostat for full heating or cooling cycle.

Use a multimeter on continuity. A normally-open (N.O.) switch should be open at rest and close when the inducer is running. Blow gently into the port tube - you should hear/feel it click closed.
The switch closes (allows ignition) when the inducer creates at least 0.50 inches of water column negative pressure. Match this rating exactly when ordering a replacement.
