Hello,I am working with an older Lennox Electric Furnace model E10Q-751-2P.When the furnace is turned on it starts and will heat the house and never turn off until I turn off the breaker.I replaced the 30 year old factory blower motor over the summer and the A/C functions flawlessly ,runs great ,cools excellent and turns on/off without any issues I believe the thermostat is functioning properly.Does this sound like a limiting switch issue? This unit has four Heat element limiting switches, numbers 1,2,3 look identical and number 4 looks different.I don'tknow if this is the source of the problem but I figure it is a place to start troubleshooting.Question can these limiting switches be adjusted and tested ? If possible I would like to narrow things down before I begin purchasing replacement components. Any help is greatly appreciated .Thanks cudamike in Virginia

It sounds like the sequencer is stuck closed.

Thank you for your reply regarding my Lennox Electric E10Q3 Furnace. Sequencer, that's the same as a thermo limiting switch right? I found one bad (no continuity) limiter switch the #2 out of 4 switches.I tried to order one locally ,told 2-3 weeks seems like an excessive waiting time guess because I am not one of their big account contractor's.They told me I can'torder a whole kit of 4.Any recommendations for purchasing over the internet.Thanks again Cudamike in Virginia
