I have a Goodman gas furnace that is about 3 years old. We turned it on for the fall a few weeks ago and it was working just fine. Recently one morning I realized that the blower had been on for a couple hours and I was still cold.
All the basic things have been checked. The system is set to heat, auto. No circuits are flipped (obviously.. the blower is working).
I opened the system up and first vacuumed it all out (although it was fairly clean in there). I then pushed in that switch so I could see a cycle run. Nothing too exciting there... the blower came on and a red light labeled DS1 came on. After a few seconds that light started blinking. Its on a main circuit board (the only one in there really). That was about it blower keeps blowing nothing else happens.
So I happen to have dual zone heating and decided to look at my downstairs furnace to see what it does. That is way more exciting. Blower comes on, DS1 light comes on, ignitor turns bright red and then the gas lights and lots of blue flames :)...
So I have determined that for some reason my ignitor is not turning on. Rather than replacing it, I am wondering what the DS1 light is trying to tell me. Does anyone know?
