(Edit: Repaired) Gas Furnace Went Out

[Oklahomabassin]

Made it home from work and walked into a 42 degree house. I cleaned the thermocoupler but I believe it is the gas valve that is going out. It will light and have a good flame but you will hear the valve click and see the flame change when it clicks. After a couple clicks it shuts off the gas.
Any checks I can try? Any where to purchase a gas valve on a Sunday?

There should be an led light on the control board that will flash an error code. The error codes should be listed on the panel.

That sucks. Feel for ya. Might try the box stores, lowes, HD, or even try Westlake Ace Hardware. Or any hardware stores around you. Also, if you're in the metro area, there are mobile appliance repair people that may have what you need.

if it has a thermal couple it's probably too old to have a control board

I have 2 of these in the back of my corolla and if you can't find them at walmart I will loan you mine.

One upstairs and one down will keep you pretty comfy.
Unless you have a very under insulated house and it's drafty.

Only gas valve I know I can get my hands on is on a gas hanging shop furnace that is 50 years old.
Still works though.
I can make a phone call and meet the guy at his camshaft shop of go get his keys and snatch the valve off the old furnace.
They just pulled it off the ceiling 3 days ago to stick a new one up.

Maybe a used appliance store?
Know anyone in the HVAC trade that may have a used one laying around?

You can call a parts house, they typically have someone on call. But it does cost a pretty penny to have em open up for you on Sunday

Damn that sucks. I’d lend you my electric heaters if you were closer

This why i always keep several propane bottles and a propane heater sitting around for these kind of emergencies, its not the best but wont freeze to death.

 

[Mr.Glock]

Damn that sucks @Oklahomabassin. Your aways from me, but I have portable heaters of all sorts if you need.

Don't know where you are, I'm close to Newcastle, I have a kerosene heater you can borrow, about 30K btu.
