Hello! Thanks for the help repairing my stove a few months ago; now a new problem rears its ugly head! My Trane XE80 furnace receives the call for heat, the relays do their work, the igniter glows and the flames kick in for about 2 seconds, at which point they go out. The igniter stays glowing, the flames kick in again for about 2 seconds, and go out once again. After the third attempt the igniter goes out and the fan just blows unheated air.:shock: Any ideas as to what is ailing this thing? It's getting cold in here! Thanks in advance!

Your flame proving device is not sensing the flame.  See if there is a probe on the opposite end of the gas manifold ...if there is you can try cleaning it up with a green scrub pad and put it back in.

If your hot surface ignitor is serving as the flame proving switch also, you may have to replace it.
