    What are the steps to getting a carrier furnace pilot light lit?
    We just bought a new house with an electric furnace and the pilot light is out. On top of that, it's the first snow of the season in Colorado so we're cold!

    The instructions say to turn off the power to the furnace and then turn it back on, but there is no indicatator as to where that power line is? Are we going to the exterior breaker box? Is their a mystery switch on the furnace itself? Please help! We're cold!
