Carrier furnace winter cycle
I have a Carrier gas furnace. Each winter when it gets cold enough for the furnace, I move the thermostat to heat, raise the indicator to 75 or 80, then wait, sometimes two or three days before the furnace comes on. It has always come on, but the wait is two to three days. After it once cycles on, it runs for the rest of the winter till I shut it off for the summer. What can I do to get it to come on the first time it's needed?

You may want to call a service tech to give your furnace a complete check to inspect the burners, igniter, condition of the heat exchanger, operation of safety devices, proper venting, wiring connections, gas leaks, filter and motor operation. This can be done in less then one hour and cost you a service charge of $50 to $100 , A small investment for your peace of mind, Good luck, Mike

Motor runs, pilot light won't ignite. Led blinks no clue what it means after 5 minutes the motor stops.
Carrier split unit in heat mode appears to basically operate OK. Once the pilot is lit and the burners come on, the pilot remains lit but the burners will intermittently cycle on and off. This appears to sometimes delay the blower from turning on. Once the blower turns on, it heats to the set temp...
I am looking at furnace for a friend. The furnace will come on with that small fan and the pilot will light. However, the burner will not catch. This unit has a igniter I suspect that the igniter is bad. Is there any way to test it?
