What Primary Control does the burner have?
If it is a Honeywell R7184P it may need to be reset by pressiing and holding the reset button for 30 secs until the LED flashes twice.

First & most importantly: If you have pressed the reset twice or more, had the motor run but the burner did not fire, STOP NOW & CALL A SERVICE PERSON. Be sure to tell the servicer how many times you've pressed the button. His/her safety & that of yourself, family, & home, depend upon an honest answer.

If you've only pressed the reset once or the burner motor did not run, post back & we will try to help.
