Dear Sir/Madam:
Hello, I stared a furnace that has not run in over a year. Initially it fired up fine and ran for awhile. I shut it down and did not fire anymore. The blowers were working but the igniter did not glow. I tested for low and high voltage and realized the transformer had shorted out. I replaced the transformer and the igniter was glowing, ignited the pilot light but no gas (natural gas) was delivered by the gas valve . My question is, can the gas valve open for the pilot and not for the burners. The gas valve is a Honeywell SV9501.
Like I indicated before everything works except the gas flow to the burners.
