I need help restarting my Amana Air Command 80 furnace. I came home last night from Yellowstone (where it was between 28 and 34 degrees all day) and it was cold in the house so I turned up the thermostat and when I got up this morning it was only 63 degrees in the house. The fan in the furnace was running, but there was no flame. I had someone reset it before shen my wife forgot to pay the gas bill, but I don't want to pay through the nose to have someone come out on a Sunday and push a button somewhere. I can't remember what he did to reset it, but I do remember that he said that the fan would run constantly without heat if it's not reset after the gas is turned back off and back on.

If you have a spark ign. all you have to do is turn down the therm, make sure the gas is on then turn up the thermostat. You might have to do that a few times depending on the amount of air in the lines. All you have to do is reset the board, either by turning off the power to it for a sec or turning down the thermostat. The ventor fan is what is running, not the blower right? |
| Got it! Thanks. turning it off at the thermostat and killing power at the breaker then turning power back on at the breaker and turning up the thermostat did the trick. I hope it was just a burp in the gas line or something and not the start of a serious problem. Last weekend the highs were in the 80's and it's only 40 out there right now. |
