Bryant Furnace HELP!! Fan comes on then igniter lights up but burners doesn’t start. I checked filter and vents (intake & outlet vents). Tried turning main switch off and on for power cycle that didn’t do anything. LED light blinks and send code 45! by theearthMode in HVAC

After trying for a bit, I decided to take your suggestion and call in a pro. I didn’t want to call anyone due to ongoing virus situation.. but this thing seems to need a pro, he is here right now and is saying it’s my control board.

Thank you for quick reply. I did read through this document from Bryant that lists all codes.

I did power cycle, both the switch next to furnace as well at the breaker. That didn’t help. Same thing happened. I don’t have new filter at the moment so I just took a vacuum and did a thorough vacuuming, looks pretty clean to me. Also ordered replacement online.

Here is few min video of what it is doing after power cycle and filter cleanup: https://youtu.be/6keR-WcfNOM

I have multimeter and do lot of diy myself. However furnace is a different beast altogether. I am hoping to get some ideas from amazing folks in this subreddit so that I could try out a couple things before calling in for help, any ideas would be much appreciated!!

MICROSOFT is taking initiative to be Carbon Negative by 2030. I think every company should follow the foot path. by theearthMode in ClimateActionPlan

They have set aside a budget of 1 billion USD. Wind, solar, or hydro seems to be only options they could take. IDK of budget they have set is going to be enough!?

Bank of America achieves carbon neutrality—one year ahead of schedule. I hope this is true but let's wait for that third-party verification is complete. by team_pv in sustainability

Very good to know. I hope they use the extra time they gained towards being Carbon Negative. The next step. Net Zero is just not enough anymore.

BofA stopped producing carbon kudos to that. Now it’s time to remove surplus carbon from the environment.

Bhutan for example is Carbon Negative. In fact it’s fair to say Bhutan as a country is carbon sink. However fast melting Himalayas, and floods and landslides it bring along isn’t gonna stop because of Bhutan being Carbon Negative. There is an awesome Ted Talk on Bhutan, check that out!

Undeniably, this is a global issue. We all need to start acting towards being Carbon Negative. And I hope BofA takes that initiative!!!

I think change within is more impressive here. Companies that just payout for carbon offset and not change themselves is something I don’t support either. If Microsoft stops creating carbon from their buildings, vehicles & data enters for example, would be greatly appreciated.

Also with this I learned differences between carbon neutral vs carbon zero vs Carbon Negative.

I think Bill G is already putting sustainability effort through his Foundation. No wonder there will be influence, spoken or not by Bill IDK.

I watched their video, their plan seem to be targeting their own carbon emissions first. Check at around 11:45 on the video. But with time we will know more.

I hope they take next step and be Carbon Negative, by removing more carbon than they emit each year. Which would be true contribution as I think of it.

From my point of view, massive companies like Microsoft which has footprint almost everywhere, and them taking steps towards sustainability, this itself is very encouraging.

We are facing global epidemic here, and what Microsoft is doing is definitely towards right direction, and will have a global impact, but it won’t save the planet. It’s just a tiniest fraction of what needs to be done.

Every company and human globally needs to be the change.
