Hi, My furnace wouldn't start when I tried to fire it up for the first time this year. The fan comes on to start the draft for about 15 secs, then the igniter comes on, then nothing ignites and the furnace shuts down and has to be reset. The led light shows no error codes. Any help would would be appreciated.
Thanks

Maybe a bad gas valve or limit switch. Do you own a volt meter. If you do, check for 24V at the gas valve and across limits.

Hope this helps
