Furnace failure

My furnace would not ignite. I check wiring and some other things. Called a remote tech. problem turned out to be the wind gate was not opening. Tech wiggled it and shook it, put it back in and all is well. I now know what to do in the future. He says it it fails 100% he can get it replaced from
Dometic. RV tech was Brute mobile rv Techs. from central Texas. Very reasonable price. Only charged normal service call price. Did not charge a hourly rate. I'm happy and paid him a little extra. It is going to get cold tonight and some leet is predicted.

John.

By "wind gate", is that also called the "sail switch"? Asking for future reference.
