I have a york furnace model no G2FD024H17G it stopped blowing warm air, so I opened furnace and the error code is 4 red flashes, which indicates possible dirty air filter (among other things). The air filter was infact very dirty. how can I reset the furnace so it will start heating again.

Kill power to the unit. Replace the filter or clean it up real good. Then turn it back on after 30 minutes the board should reset.

    All them boards are basically the same. After one hour of lockout, your furnace should automatically reset itself and try to operate as usual.

    I put a new filter in , I am leaving unit off for 1 hour and then I will turn it back on and see if it resets it's self. if that does not correct it, what do you think might potentially be the problem when it has the 4 red led flashes?

Hunterfan 44260 blowing cold air and flashing 4 blower keeps turning on and its not flowing a normal cycle, they are short turning off and then on again

The "4" only indicates which program is currently running. This thermostat does not display furnace error codes.

In a heating system that uses hot wire ignition for natural gas or propane, this behavior may indicate the furnace failed to detect a flame when the cycle starts. You may get warm air briefly, but because the flame detector isn't working, the system shuts down. After a while, it purges any gas and tries again. The controller board in the furnace may have an indicator light that flashes an error code - look for a label on the access panel that describes what it means.

One common cause of this problem is a buildup of contaminants on the flame sense rod (often the same rod that heats red-hot to ignite the gas). Turn off the power to the furnace, wait for it to cool, then inspect the rod. If it has a whitish film on it, clean that off with Scotch-Brite (TM) or similar product (don't use sandpaper). The flame sensor works by measuring a tiny electrical current through the flame. A buildup of combustion products on the sensor blocks this current.

Warning: if you are not absolutely certain about which part is what in the furnace, don;t take any chances, call in a professional. This is a critical gas safety component.

I have a Goodman high-eff furnace, 115 BTU/hr. The fan runs constantly but it has stopped blowing warm air. I'm getting 6 flashing lights as error code. What's this mean?

Remove the lower panel and look for a wiring diagram pasted to it. On that diagram there will be an error code diagnostic chart. Depending upon which model you have it could be an open overheat switch caused by a dirty filter or a bad fuse.

Carrier Gas Furnace runs fine randomly stops blowing LEDs flash

That blinking light may be the diagnostic light. Count the blinks next time it fails. Carrier units will have two different blinks depicting the error code such as one blink followed by a pause than 3 blinks giving you an error code of 13. Then look at the wiring diagram, it will have an error code chart telling you where to start with your diagnosis. You already know that if you remove the cover it erases the error code, so look thru the small window first.

York high effenciency furnace not firing all the time

has anyone worked on this furnace because the error would indicate that the positive 120 volt and the neg 120 volt is swapped , these units will also do this when the ground wire to the furnace or gas valve or furnace or @ the panel is lose , corroded , or missing , the gnd must be present to open valve , I am aware that ac is is not usually polarity sensitive but in this case it most certainly is ...have seen many time and know it to be true
