Heater stopped heating

My heater stopped heating. It was giving us hard time for the past 3 months.

1. When I turn it on, the motor located in the top part of the heater start rotating and furnace starting making a humming noise.
2. I hear the gas start coming, but the furnace is unable to light it up
3. Gas stops and humming continues
4. Furnace trying to light up the gas (this is my guess) four-five times and the shuts down
5. LED light on the board starts blinking 4 times

What I tried:

1. I tried bypassing the thermostat and connected red-white together
2. I removed the spark-maker, cleaned it and sanded it

OK; after further research, I think that I misinterpreted the igniter with the sensor. My igniter is cracked and needs to be replaced.
