Called DTE because furnace was failing to consistently ignite. They contracted out a repairman, Andrew, from All Phase Services Inc. He cleaned the spark ignitor, the furnace started right up and he ran diagnostic tests and tuned up the furnace. He discovered the spark ignitor wire had been improperly repaired after being erroneously cut by the previous repairman last year who needed to remove the blower. Andrew showed me it should have just been unplugged as he effortlessly demonstrated. He noticed water on the floor and we told him the furnace had been leaking water for many years. Previous repairmen had only cleaned the water trap and the furnace would leak again regularly. Andrew inspected and found one of the condensation return hoses had been frayed or cut most likely from age and he replaced it and also discovered the plastic trap container was broken at the exit hose connector.
I highly recommend Andrew from All Phase Services Inc, he is a younger man but more thorough than repairmen with more experience than Andrew's age.
