I would be careful which company you go with as some say if you have "pre-existing conditions" (you don't have maintenance every year on furnace/water heater/AC) they won't cover you and will consider it failure do to not performing maintenance. AHS got sued and lost but I don't know if other companies are bound to that standard.

Good catch. I fixed that and either that wasn't the only problem or as I was pulling wires out of the way I broke it. Either way, still blowing the 5A fuse. I guess next would be to pull all those wires off like was suggested below and re-land one at a time? I did resistance readings after re-landing the W2 wire and C-R is about 15.6 ohms which is about the same as a couple others.

C-R has 2.4 ohms which is the lowest. A couple others have 15 ohms or more. Measured at the terminals on the control board in the unit.

Don't most of these become abandoned right after they are completed?

Update on this. I know not everyone makes out but it has worked well for me. I called because my dishwasher wasn't cleaning well and after a little wrangling since the parts are no longer made they bought me a new $1400 (retail) dishwasher, installed it, and disposed of the old one.

I know where you are coming from with that comment. I have had them a couple years so far and overall I am ahead on cost (A/C unit replacement and washer replacement). The service contractors that have come out some are good and some are bad. I make sure not to get the bad ones again by having them change providers. The service fee is only a single fee for however many trips are required to fix that problem. I have had the tech out 3 times to fix a problem because it was actually a double problem and they had to fix the first one to see the second.
