How doi ingnite or re-light an amana furnace that is about 5 years old?
This furnace does not have a pilot, and is a hot surface ignition, a ceramic glowing rod that only comes on when the furnace is calling for it to light burners, if this is not opperating, the ignitor may be bad. Best to call a contractor, it should be a quick and painless call. Those units have 5 year warranties on parts, if you know when the installation date was. If its not covered by warranty, you can still expect it to cost not more than $100-150 with labor, if it is just the ignitor. Anything more and they are overcharging.
