As you can see this group is not actually a legit help group. Rather
it is just a bunch of self important rejects that hang here to perform
their version of an online circle jerk.
$760 for the board is to much. Start looking for the board yourself or
start searching for a competent electronics tech to see if he can find
a flaw in the board.
If you get the board install it yourself and report it back here. Make
sure you let the HVAC professionals know that repairing a furnace
doesn't take a professional. That should go over well.
