Could be a thermostat problem... cheap to fix.

HOWEVER (loaded) there are several things that could go wrong to duplicate the issue as you describe it.

Try wiring in a new digital thermostat first, but if that does not fix the problem, be prepared to call a HVAC Tech.

The next time it refuses to work, take wires off tstat, the red should go to r/c and the white goes to w on tstat,, if this is correct,, just twist the 2 wires together,, this will bypass your tstat,, if it works OK,, you need to replace the tstat,, if furnace doesn`t work as normal you will have something wrong with furnace,, I hate to see people buy parts guessing that it might be broke,, and then if it was wrong,, they are out the money(waisted),, this is all providing you have a furnace and not a heat pump
