Question for the group. Similar question have been asked about the wiring of the HE260 unit, but I haven't noticed a similar question when using the sail switch.
I have installed the HE260 unit using the instructions and video included with the installation kit. The problem I'm having could be due to my wiring or a faulty part. Attached is the wiring schematic I am currently using.

With the furnace comes on, I can hear the transformer click every couple of seconds, but other than that, nothing else happens. I checked the wiring, plumbing and everything looks correct. Any ideas from the group? Possible faulty solenoid, sail switch, transformer?
Thanks in advance

I'd look at the sail switch..
Bypass that by shorting to two wire together on the sail.

The problem turned out to be a faulty transformer. I swapped out the transformer with a new one and everything is working great.
Thanks for the help.
