I have a flashing diagnostic light on my oil burner control to my furnace. i had it serviced 2 weeks ago, but have not had it on. I just turned on the thermostat tonight and it is not coming on. Rest button is not kicked and there is power and oil to the unit. Any ideas?

WHY did you have it serviced? Was it to fix a problem, or was it for routine maintenance?

You haven't tried contacting the guy who worked on it? I realize you do not want to have to pay him yet again, but you could make that part clear, and say that you were kind of expecting that since he worked on it, that it should work, and that you should not have to pay him yet again, when here you haven't even ran it yet!

Out of curiousity, how do you know it is getting oil? You know for a fact it is spraying it in there? Is your pump to motor coupler intact?
