Gas Furnace Works Only When Power Reset
 

Hello,

My gas furnace turns on if I reset the power to it and brings the
temperature up to set point. However, it seems that the next time the
thermostat sends the signal, the furnace doesn't start until I cycle
its power switch.

Please advise.

Thank you,

Sam

That's the furnace's way of telling you that it has a problem. You need to
call someone who can diagnose and repair the problem

There is no way to troubleshoot a furnace remotely But it sounds as
though it is locking out on a flame safety. You should have it checked
before it locks out permanently.
