 What you hear running is probably the Induced Draft Fan motor. The fiery glow is likely a hot-surface igniter. So you're getting that far, but apparently the furnace has nothing to ignite - gas, that is - and will stop trying after a set time.

If you have the book, check the Sequence of Operation page. The manual and/or the Sequence of Operation card might be stored in a pocket inside the furnace.

If you open the furnace doors, you will likely find a wiring diagram pasted onto the lower door, along with other information, possibly a fault code legend.

I don't know about this Payne, but mine has LEDs on the board that will blink a fault code. I have to open an access panel to see them, if I remember right.

In my opinion you don't want to kick this unit too often. They are expensive.

(Looking like a run on stuck gas valves, Reg.)
