Tempstar Gas Burner No lit up.

The Gas burner stopped working last night. I have checked the following:

1) Restart following the instruction. Fan started. Waited long, but pilot no lit, main burner no burning.
2) Put thermo to highest temperature. Pilot no lit, burner no burning.
3) Pressure valve worked every time when fan started.
4) Put thermo off, then put main switch on. The fan started, pressure valve closed, pilot no lit, burner no burning.

So it seemed to me either gas valve is wrong or the thermostat is wrong. Even worse, both.

Any one can help? It is cold now...

Well my guess is you can rule this one out. :grin2:

Keep the thermostat and gas valve and buy a new furnace.:LOL:
Seriously, call a tech out and get it fixed. Don't attempt anything else yourself.
