Possible Causes

Closed manual gas shutoff valve, Faulty gas valve, Broken ignitor, Loose gas manifold

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power and gas before working on gas components. If you smell gas, evacuate and call the gas company.

  • Verify gas shutoff: Ensure the gas cock near the furnace is ON (handle parallel to pipe).
  • Observe ignition: Through the sight glass, check if the ignitor glows. If not, test and replace the ignitor as needed.
  • Listen for gas flow: If ignitor glows but you never hear gas, the gas valve may not be opening. This requires professional testing of voltage to the valve and gas pressure.
