    Fan center reset switch
    My sisters furnace keeps popping the red reset button on her oil furnace. I believe it is an ignition control center. I replaced it a few weeks ago because it would not reset. The furnace will work fine for like 2-3 days then pop the reset button. Some days it needs to be reset 2-3 times a day. The red trouble code light does not blink to show what is wrong. What could cause this to happen?

    Thanks

    When was the last time that oil burner was professionally serviced. A flame out or other burner problems causes the reset/safety control to trip to start with so replacing the control is not fix for this situation as you have found out. Time for a burner tune up.
