Honeywell 17000 Air Purifier Questions & Answers
Honeywell 17000 just stopped working
That capacitor, if it is the start up capacitor will cause the motor to hum loudly. If it is the 'run' capacitor and is open circuit the motor will not start.
That is an easy fix.
he flickering lights may suggest a different issue.
My honeywell HFD-015C air purifier wont turn on
Hello, this is Ava with Think Crucial.
You may check to make sure that the power cord is correctly connected to the outlet. Test the outlet is functioning properly using another appliance or lamp. Also, check the fuse or circuit breaker. The outlet may be overloaded if other appliances are also in use. Establish and correct the cause of the overload. If none of these works, then there is something wrong with your purifier unit and contact the store where you purchase it or Honeywell for replacement. It is advised not attempt to repair the unit yourself.

My honeywell air purifier is emmiting an awful
Mine quit too... The led screen went blank so I changed the battery. Now it does nothing. I totally disassembled it as the fan was turning stiffly.(should spin very easilly) The grease in the end bearing was stiff. I washed the gummy grease off the shaft and reoiled with synthetic oil. Your smell is probably motor windings overheating. I disassembled the electronic control and was disgusted to see that there is a glass fuse soldered to the circuit board. I believe the only reason for this fuse is to cause us consumers to needlessly replace otherwise good equipment. (It cost more to pay a repairman to replace the hidden fuse than to purchase a new unit)The fuse is not blown. At least this fuse actually looks lide a fuse unlife the stealth fuses most electronics have hidden in them. I can not obtain a wireing diagram on my 17005 unit but it has a black box inside behind the control panel. It looks like a small start capacitor, but it has a temp rating on it of 70*C. I suspicion it is a single use over heat safety which triggered when my motor got hot due to stiff bearings. I refuse to play their game and purchase a new air cleaner. I love this one... So, if I can not determine what that little black box is, I am going to bypass all the crappy electronics and just drill a hole on top by the handle and install a hi/lo/off manual switch directly to the motors wire hasness. This machine will never give me problems ever again, and if I oil the motor every couple of years with synthetic (Ander oil) this unit WILL last me for the rest of my life...
WILL NOT START....NO POWER? BOUGHT
Make sure that the receptacle that it's plugged in to is still working. The circuit breaker for that outlet may have been tripped in your home's circuit breaker panel. Or there may be a loose wire or bad connection inside the outlet box. May not be air purifiers fault at all.

Honeywell air purifier, will not turn on,
Does this unit have a 3 volt battery in the control panel like the 17005 model? The battery lasts appx 4-5 years then the unit doesnt seem to work any more once you change it. The unit must be left plugged in while you change the battery otherwise you lose your programing. If your not under warranty, UNPLUG it then pull out the filter, take out the 6 screws, separate the sides, and expose the fan. If the fan does not spin very easilly with no drag, the bearings are gummy; which is why nearly all small motors get replaced. The motor can be easilly disassembled, gummy grease washed off with rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab, and reoiled with synthetic oil. These units are designed to gum up and require replacement at approximately the same time the warranty expires. They would last almost indefinitely if oiled in their little oil ports occasionally (every couple of years). If your bearings are stiff, then a hidden safety device has tripped to avoid a fire, and if you are handy, you can replace the blown fuse if you can locate it on the circuit board, or the blown over temp device. If you have to pay some one to do this, it is cheaper to replace the whole machine in this throw away world.
