Blower was working fine until today. Turned thermostat up to 70 degrees and the pilot lit the gas but after maybe a minute or two the blower did not come on and furnace smelled like something was burning maybe because it was too hot because the blower did not turn on. HELP please. Thank You

Sounds like the blower motor is shot. The smell is askrill and that is the varnish they use on the motor windings that causes the smell when the motor burns out. It could also be the blower fan control.
