The Problem::
Oddly enough from around 8 am to around 12 midnight the furnace runs
on and off as it should, but after 12 midnight it shuts off and the red light
comes on to where it has to constantly be reset.



Sound like you have one of those (flakey) programmable electronic
thermostat controllers. May I suggest that you replace that with a
simple ON-OFF thermostat controller. You and your father are at home
most of the day anyway and you don't need to program fuel saving
hours. The simple controller will maintain a set temperature. If this
doesn't solve the problem you are not out by much in money or in work
done to change the thermostat.
