Sorry to hear your furnace went out. I'd suggest to call
your friends and relatives, and see who they hire for
furnace repair. Home furnace isn't a good place to learn
on. Too many things can go wrong.

Just as it gets cold, my Payne hot air propane-fired furnace broke!

All of a sudden, the blower just blows cold air constantly without letup.
The pilot flame never starts.
Obviously, the gas never lights up either.

This happened, all of a sudden.

Normally, it has an electronic pilot, which lights the gas about a minute
after the blower starts. There is plenty of propane.

Any troubleshooting ideas?

I think there are three main components:
1. The flame apparatus
2. The circuit board
3. The lockout switch

I'm inclined to just buy all three, and replace (and have a spare), since
I remember the last service call was expensive and the circuit board was
replaced in seconds after a three week wait for the parts to arrive.

Do you have any idea WHERE I can get the three main components?
