    Probably the pressure switch, or a stuck relay.
    Check the hoses for obstructions and moisture.
    Try tapping on the pressure switch while running on to see if stuck. Never blow into the switch, as it will surely ruin it or at least knock it off setting. If you had a digital manometer, it could be checked, but price on a new switch isn't bad.

    Yes they are expensive,your better off replacing the water heater with a power vent model.

    I don't think you will find one for less than $400.00
