It sounds to me like you have a defective fan switch. On furnaces the fan motor doesn't start until the heat exchanger is hot so it doesn't circulate cool air. The fan switch tells the blower motor that there is enough heat in the heat exchanger and it can turn on. This is most likely your problem. The good news is even if it is a motor you can buy a blower motor for less than $90.00. If you can fix it yourself then you will also save a ton in labor.

To determine if the switch is bad check voltage on the outlet side, which is the inlet to the wires to the blower motor. Should be about 115Volts present on the Heating speed of the motor.

Hope this helps.

I think it needs a checkup. Something is out-of-whack, but I don't know what it could be. Check to see that there isn't something warm near the thermostat that could affect the temp of the thermostat, change the filter, make sure a circuit breaker hasn't tripped. That's all the trouble shooting ideas I have, but I don't think they'll fix the problem.

Its a grimy flame sensor. its a splash metallic rod that sits promptly inthe direction of the burner flame. take a a million/4 inch nutdriver and get rid of it. Scrape the metallic rod section with the sting of a bite of cardboard to bathe it up-careful to not touch the metallic rod which include your hands. reinstall it. which will restoration the furnace subject. do away with the open container of laundry detergent it is interior of reach-that's what reasons it.

Can you hear the motor running? Make sure the filter isn't clogged.
