Sounds like a fried timed delay relay.....either a stay alone separate one OR the one on circuit board.
12V DC power is ON to one side of timed delay relay. When T-stat makes up power is sent to other side of relay heating a coil and allowing power to blower-sail switch, high limit switch and then to board and then to gas valve.
If timed delay relay shorted close furnace would run as normal...but not shut off without pulling power.
Now the question....does your furnace have a separate relay (cheaper to replace) or is it part of circuit board.
Is it time for your medication or mine?
