There is a flame sensor at the burner that may be causing your problem, try sanding it lightly with fine sand paper. The sensor looks like a rod with one wire coming from it and is attached to the burner . This sensor senses the flame and keeps the gas valve open. You could also have bad ground to the burner , this would be a green wire connected to the burner. Good luck, Mike

Central Heat will not come on unless I flip the breaker on and off in my garage. Then it will stay on until it reaches the temp set on thermostat. Then it shuts off and will not come back on, unless of course... I trip the breaker again.
