Problem with a Lennox Whisper Heat G20Q3E-75-4
Hello,
I have a Lennox Whisper Heat Unit that is not working. Ive tried a couple of fixes and still it is not working.
When I fired it up for the first time this season it worked fine. One morning I fired it up and nothing happened. Typically when I turn the thermostat to the desired temperature, the thermostat makes a "click" sound and then the heat can be heard as the electric pilot sparks "click click click" followed by the "whoosh" of the gas igniting. However, after the thermostat clicks, the heater is not making it's sounds and it is not coming on.
I checked the power and gas to the unit, both are working. When I turn the blower fan only on, it comes on and blows garage temperature air into the house. But, the heater is not activating.
First I changed the flow regulator and nothing changed. Next, I changed the ignition control box and again nothing changed.
So, I'm looking for possible names to my problem and cures for it.
Thanks!

Would that be the black toggle underneath the second/lower access panel? If so, I BELIEVE it is (TBH I haven't physically checked that). It's typically pushed into place by the lower panel. I will check that out though.

OK, I found the manual in my "archive's". They call it a damper prove switch. I think it is black with small metal arm on it.
The damper actually presess on the arm.
