    If it is a condencing furnace it porbally does not have a piloit light. What is brand of your furnace? And what happens when you turn it on?

    3 flashes is probably pressure switch. Look on the back of the furnace door it should have your fault code, or in your owners manual.

    I think my pilot light went out last night. High winds in Nebraska. Furnace won't kick on. I have a Bryant Quietline Furnace, C16-21-1FF, Serial Number 5183H11813. Where is the pilot light located?

    Is the induced draft motor running? If so is the tube to the pressure switch from the inducer housing clogged in the orifices that its attached to?

    Look online for specific legend per make model for codes, its either a limit or proving device or hot surface ignitor module, there is a plug on the leads to the ignitor, unplug it and test for 120 volts at the wires when trying to initiate a heat cycle, there will be a induced draft for 30 seconds a clicking sound and then power to the ignitor.
