thanks, it seemed so obvious but when I removed the cover, it was in the off position. The furnace was working erractically. I flicked it to the on position, but now getting error code 34. All filters have been cleaned, trying to get the ignitor sensor out to clean but that's proving to be a problem.

weird the furnace was actually working when it was in the off position. Whatever, it's in the on position now. If it's for gas, then *duh* and if it's for the fan, it can't hurt.

Thanks skaggsje.....I still can't figure out how the furnace WAS working with the switch in the off position. Last time this happened, a couple of years back, the blower needed replacing. Maybe it's time for a new furnace, it's pretty old.

Agreed, can't figure that one out either. If you post the serial number we can tell how old it is. Are getting any flames when it tries to start?
BTW, is this a heat pump system?
