help!!

I'm in San Francisco and I have a furnace that isn't working. The thermostat seems to be working and the furnace fan seems to turn on, but I don't hear the flame light and after a bit the fan just turns off. The instructions on the front of the furnace say it doesn't have a pilot light.

Does anyone in the Bay Area have a good hvac/furnace repair guy? Thanks in advance.

I am not in the Bay area, but something like this happen to one of my rentals.  My best friend is a HVAC guy. It ended up being the thermostat itself was the problem.  You may not have a pilot light but you do have an electric ignition.

I just replaced the thermostat today and it's doing the same thing as before. I'm thinking it has to do with the furnace itself.
