furnace reset

[Effy]

This morning doing some trip prep my wife placed a bag in front of the furnace vent. So the furnace shut down. Now it won't kick on again. I imagine there is a reset but I am not sure where. Any ideas?

OP here, turns out it has an automatic reset. Turn the thermostat off and wait a few mins and back on and that worked. Thanks all.

I had to take the exhaust cover on the outside to find my reset switch, mounted to blower fan cover

What your wife did should NOT have shut the furnace down. I think it was a coincidence. Intake or interior exhaust vent blockage will not shut a furnace down. It might kick out the over temp switch, but that switch will auto reset unless defective. IF it does trip and not reset, the furnace will still come on and attempt to fire 3 times before shutting down. If your furnace fan does not come on at all, then either the furnace fuse is blown OR on some models, they do have a 12 volt circuit breaker inside the furnace that must be manually reset. So, check all you coach 12 volt fuses at the fuse panel. IF you have the model furnace that has an outside access door, remove it and you will see a schematic and also that circuit breaker if you have one. Doug

Might try finding the circuit breaker and shutting power off to the furnace for a few minutes. Most newer electronics will reset when power is turned off.

Maybe just a time delay
