Does your squirrel cage motor come on? I had a gf that her York would go though startup but never came on but shutdown.

The issue was a vacuum lime going to the cage that had some lint in it preventing it from throwing the vacuum switch. Cleaned the plastic tube and it fixed it. These new ones had to many interlocks imo.

Do you have BBQ grill and charcoal?

Sunday makes parts hard to obtain. Locke is a good source, 6 days a week.

Gas valve shutting off is a good thing, when going bad. Our house fire, in '84, was a gas valve that failed, locked in open position. Never shut off.

Hope you get it straightened out.

If you have a fire place this may work in a pinch. I got a 30k BTU ventless for the wife's Christmas present.
Being ventless all the heat stays in when I close the damper. Took 2 hours to install if you have the fittings which are easy and all goes well. They have larger model also. Remote controlled.4294599068

All in the name of safety. Safety for continued business money makers.
