Honeywell HZ519 Baseboard Heater - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
My heater is not working at all only my power supply light is on
unplug the heater. remove the screws holding the control panel, pull the control out from the body of the heater enough to get the probes of an ohmmeter onto the connections that lead to the heating element. the ohmmeter should read less than 100 ohms. if the ohmmeter reads infinite ohms (open circuit), the heating element or the connections to it ate bad. if the heating element is bad, cheaper to buy a new heater. if the heating element is okay, repair connections or control.

How do I bleed the line of a baseboard heater?
there is ussualy a small thumb screw in the feed pipe to the unit in qestion, just loosen it and let air and some water out.or on your boiler there will be a bleed vave sometimes there is evemn an auto vent valve
Heater got tipped over now
I do believe that there should be a tip switch under the feet and if it is broke off then you need to by pass the switch. You could use a small piece of dowel rod up inside to trip the switch and have heat.
Powers on, no heat
I have this model heater and it quit working as well. I took it apart to find that the plastic bosses that the safety switch mounts/screws to melted and the switch fell into the bottom of the heater rendering the heater useless.
FYI, The safety switch removes power from the heater when the heater is laying on it's front or back incase it gets knocked over while it is on.
This is a serious defect. These heaters should be recalled.
Wont heat up
I have an HZ519 that stopped working as well. I found that the anti tip switch is in fact a mechanical weight type if switch and not a mercury switch. The problem I'm having is that the plastic stud that the anti tip switch mounts to is melting causing the switch to come loose and fall to the bottom of the heater and therefore stop working properly depending upon the position the switch is in when it lands.
Does anyone know if Honeywell has a retrofit for this problem?
Thank you,
Randy
Heater wont heat
It sounds like the thermostat is loose and needs to be adjusted or replaced. Leave this to a professional if you don't know what you're doing. So many fires are caused by baseboard heaters.
Instructions
The manual isn't very helpful.
There are three modes to the heater. Hit the mode button once, and it will display the temperature of the room with a small flashing thermometer. Set it to whatever temperature you want - BUT don't hit the mode button again! If you hit it again, it will move through the timer mode, then continuous run mode (which displays a little circle in the upper left). Same goes for the timer. If you want it to shut itself down in up to 10 hours, press the mode button until you get to the timer, set the timer for however many hours you want, and then don't hit the mode button again.
It stays in whatever mode you set it to.
Heater
Just fixed one, you will need a T-15tr driver, which is a security torx screw remover. Open back cover behind controls, check for
any lose wires. Heating element wire had become disconnected on the one I repaired. P.S. you will need an extension for the bit if it is just the bit, and not a screw driver.
Heater won't come on
its difficult to make a homeowner an expert in troubleshooting his/her equipment if he/she has no technical background - but - I will try. First check the cord to plug connection. Is it tight? Does it look melted? Next, take the unit apart where the cord goes into the unit. Check the wiring path. Look at each connection. Look for burnt off wires at connections. Most connectors are the push on type and are mechanically fastened to the wires. if they are burned off you'll need replacement spade terminals and a crimping tool. (radio shack) has these. one wire will go through a thermostat and out to an element terminal. one wire may go through a thermodisc overload, then to the thermostat and then to the element. the other wire will definitely go straight to the element. there may be some extra connections for lights etc. if you have to take apart the heater make a diagram of which wires go where. use some masking tape with numbers written on it to make sure the wires go back to the same place you took them off.
Stopped working?
Check for lint inside and on the edges, it may have blown and you need somebody to repair this, is it smoking at all?
Replacing a 2-pole baseboard heating thermostat
Here at home where I reside we have an old school thermostat that has the mercury bulb that acts like a sensor, and in other cases it could just be as easy as replacing the batteries in the unit itself, usually a lid that hides them, sometimes it works

Where is battery on a Honeywell LR95329 Thermostat Base please?
They all hide in the thermostat base.
Load on the contacts is 24 vac standard, 30 volts max. the battery however is a standard AA or AAA Duracell battery, it is not 30 volts.... Those are available almost everywhere, You can pry the front of the thermostat from its wall mount sub base and see the batteries inside... just replace them.
