Will turn on w/o blower for a few secs, doesn't ever go entirely on. Is blinking 3 times (Pressure switch open with inducer on). What the heck does that mean? Something I can do or should I just call the specialist? We installed it ourselves so we have some knowledge.

Read the post more carefully acefurnacefxr, they installed the furnace themselves. You and I both know that it is likely a very simple fix. It doesn't take 23 years experience to reconnect a pressure switch tube. If you don't like the fact that a homeowner has installed his own furnace, talk to Lennox...they sold it to him!

It's only a shock if your not expecting it!

Check that the rubber tube is connected from the inducer fan housing to the pressure switch. Make sure the electrical connections on the pressure switch are good.
