My whitfield advantage ll is 14 years old..When i start it up the control panel will light up and go blank .I f i keep pushing the start button it will come on for 10 sec then turn off. If i unplug the unit and press start it will eventually work This took 20 min. last night.After i get it running it works great.. ANY IDEAS
 
Is your control board the black faced one with 5 settings each for the heat output and the room air fan? If so you will need to replace the control board.
