In this video we look at a Broan NuTone Vacuum Controller for a central vacuum system. This board belongs to a friend at work and has stopped working. We do some basic troubleshooting and try to fault find with no schematics or information on this board what so ever. I honestly an guessing at some of the operation of it as well since I have not seen it in operation myself. Hope you found the video helpful and thanks for watching!
