      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological: bidness, customers, tools, troubleshooting, flavorite brewski, whatever. Webcams and microphones are open and live!
      This workshop is also a great time for any students at Master Samurai Tech to bring any and all questions about the coursework. We're happy to walk through any concepts you're having trouble with. Think of it like office hours with your teachers. 
      If you have a specific appliance problem you'd like us to talk about, post it here! We need a problem statement and a PDF of the tech sheet or schematic so we can all see it on screen share. If you have a PDF that isn't already in the File library here at Appliantology, send it to us by attaching it to the contact form. 
      Also, follow this Calendar Event so you'll get notified of new posts here. Look for the "Follow" button either at the top of the topic on desktop or below the topic on mobile.

The control probably ain't gettin ignition confirmation. Tell your friend to remove the ignitor sensor and clean it with a dry brillo pad. Reinstall and retry it.

how old is this furnace? it could have a honeywell smart valve ignition control system, which is a bit more complicated.

I agree with applianceman1800. He Throws around that " sand your flame sensor" alot , but in this case he seems to be right. The symptoms do indicate the board was sensing " flame failure" .
