Default Bryant propane heater can't possibly be wired reversed (red LEDblinks constantly)

Troubleshooting advice requested, because the LED blinking
constantly supposedly indicates that the heater is wired
in reverse (which really isn't very likely, so I must be
misinterpreting something obvious).

Heater worked last year (AFAIK).

It just started getting cold in California, so, the heater power
was turned on, and ... and ... and ... uh ... um ... no heat.

Thermostat batteries are good:

Heater power is on and the blower blows but the red led blinks
at a steady pace forever.

Checked that the switches inside were all on:

Checked that the fuse on the circuit board was good:

The sticker says constant flashes indicates reverse wiring:

But, there's no way the wiring was changed between last year & now.

Here's what it looks like inside:

I don't know where the model number is, so, I don't have a manual
yet.

Debugging suggestions are requested, and very helpful. Thanks!
