I've tested the fuse, thermostats(hi limit and cycle), ignitor and flame sensor for continuity and they all tested fine. I tried testing the gas coils and they seem to be testing in the range that I've looked up online too? I'm confused as to what might be causing it to shut down like that?



It runs and operates fine. Just seems that after the initial heat up than it goes cold and does not heat up again. Would the gas valve coils, even though tested within specs be a cause of the thermostats, thermal fuse, ignitor and flame sensor all tested closed for continuity?
