How to fix furnace will not run (no heat) - lennox el195uhne: step by step

- Make sure both access panels are on - the door interlock switch cuts line voltage.
- Check the main disconnect, fuses and breakers, and the 3 A circuit breaker CB8 in the control box.
- Check the filter; a plugged filter makes the limit shut the unit off (7 flashes).
- Confirm gas is on at the meter, the main manual valve and the internal valve.
- Read the red LED flash code and stored codes (press and release the recall button). If the unit is in lockout and locks out again, inspect for blockages (vent, intake, condensate drain).
