Furnace burners shut off after 2m30s.
Hi all, as mentioned in the title, my Goodman furnace burners shut off after exactly 2m30secs and continues to cycle like this. I cleaned the flame sensor without any luck. Any other ideas?
Furnace is 5 years old. Air filter replaced. Any help would be appreciated.

At 2 and a half minutes, I would suspect a pressure switch or limit lockout.
What is the complete model number of this furnace. The tag is usually in the burner section.
How many blinks are you getting on the diagnostic LED?

The flame sensor would shut the burner off within the first ten seconds.
It sounds like you have an airflow problem thru the furnace.
Did the problem start after the filter replacement and was the old one dirty ?
Have you checked for a blocked return vent or do you have too many registers closed down ?
How is the airflow out of the registers ?

Thanks for the tips! I checked the registers and discovered several were not flowing. Somehow the louvre/valve on the main outflow line from the furnace seemed to be completely turned to off (it seemed loose/floppy). Opening that up seems to have solved the shutoff problem. Thank you very much!

So as not to cause confusion.... your second thread in the A/C forum was combined with this one.
Sometimes there is a nut that can be tightened on the damper control lever.
