Quick update. Hot water heater is good. Compressed air and it fired right up
Furnace not so much. No outside access except the 2 exhaust holes. And it’s tucked under a closet with the only access is the return air grate. So I opened that up and see the silver box (furnace). I can take the back panel off but that only exposes 2 wires connected by something. I think the guys are in front which ya backed into the cubby.
But, I did notice that I can smell gas through the exhaust outside while the fan is on blowing. I believe this rules out the sail switch as I believe that restricts gas flown this leaves maybe the igniter??? I here it clicking away a few times before shutting down but no fire.
