I've had my kids turn up my oil burner t-stat before, made me ugly.  My CB uses cotter pins on the solenoids (grade 8).  Installed in 2008 and never had one fail, solenoid either.  Had to replace the blower fan once.

I'm single so I don't have any ankle biters running my house so if anything changes, it's my own fault.   :-\  The cotter pin held, it was the bolt that holds the solenoid plunger to the "U" shaped piece that's bolted to the flat plate covering over the elbow opening that came loose and eventually fell off.  I've never experienced a solenoid failure and any other mechanical or electronic device fail either.  I have an extra circ on hand and will be going to my CB dealer soon for a backup blower to have on hand.  My OWB was installed in summer of 2010.  Roger
