I have a Kenmore furnace (I assume it's made by Goodman), model GMP100-4, 1993. The initial problem was that the furnace only operated intermittently, it would run most of the day and then stop. I had to turn the furnace off to get it to operate again. After a few days of this this the furnace only stayed on for brief periods. I changed the Flame sensor and the HSI. It worked for another week. I then updated the thermostat to a Honeywell RTH6300B. That worked for about another week. Now I can't turn the furnace on at all. While at the furnace when I turn the power off and then back on the inducer blower motor comes on for about 5 sec. then stops. The LED on the control board blinks 3 times continuously. The vent and vacuum hose appear to be clear. I used my mouth to apply a low vacuum on the pressure switch and my VOM indicated zero ohms proving that the switch contacts were closed.
What do you think the problem is? What other components should I check and how do I check them?
