    Can not get my furnace to lite
    Can someone please help me? We have a honeywell furnace I am not sure of what model. But we ran out of fuel, which triggered the furnace to kick the reset button off. We have bleed the fuel line after we got our fuel delivery. I have followed all the directions on how to start the furnace back up but it will not stay on. I set the thermastat to the lowest setting, push the reset button, and pull the door trigger out. It makes a noise like it is coming on but then the reset button kicks again. I don't believe it is lighting. Any one with information please respond. Thanks

    Sorry I don't have a propane license and therefore do not feel right in trying to give you information. Maybe someone will see it and give you some answers.
    If this is in a moble home you might post under moble homes and get more attention.

    Honeywell does not make a furnace.
    Is this a gas or oil unit?
    What is the real brand name?
    What is the exact model number?

    I have a very limited knowledge of oil furnaces (gladly I might add) but is it possible that your filter picked up some sediment/dirt from the bottom of the tank when you ran it dry?

    Bleed the fuel line again till it works or call for a ON Site inspection and service by a HVAC company. I would also add that almost all fuel oil delivery companys will bleed your furnace for free while they are there delivering your oil. Remember that the next time.

    A fuel oil furmace has many parts that are required to work perfectly in order for it to burn correctly. I suggest you get a tune up on your burner whick will save you money on your fuel bill to start with.
