I forgot what is it call for but I wash it at this summer)but I do not understand what you said : windows open (windows in the house?) and ghost turning thermostat up and down?Any chance that wrong because of A FLAME SENSOR?THANKS

    Unscrew the screw that holds the flame sensor in place and take the sensor out and clean the metal wire part with a piece of sand paper and replace. It may work better.

    Is there a status light on the furnace? If so, it will lead to the problem.

    Sounds like the thermostat may be the problem. The status light should blink if the furnace malfunctions.
