Thanks for the tip about the the front panel connecting the blower motor switch. As soon as I put it back on and pressed the red on/ off switch I got a green LED light and it started immediately! Great info for a late Sunday night fix!

Thanks again

Thanks for all the advice. I just moved into a new apartment this summer and this is the first time I'm turning on the heat just to realize it wasn't working. I thought I would look here before calling hvac service in Modesto CA and it looks like it might just need a filter change. Thanks again for your help!

I could have saved a lot of money if i had just known about the batteries! I'll be checking here before I call any repairman from now on. I still don't know where to find the battery though. They hide it pretty good.

Remember that there are usually 2 service disconect switches. One at the top of the basement stairs and one with in 6 feet of the furnace or boiler. check the side of the equipment and the csiling directly above the equipment for the 2nd switch
