Ok, I just replaced my ignitor and now I am getting a vacuum switch error. Anyone know what that means and how to fix it?
 
Here is a troubleshooting manual to help you out. Check your vacuum switch.

usually means you have an air flow issue, venting blocked, ash pan door or gasket. Clean the venting and combustion blower.

Are you sure you didn't knock a wire loose - that goes to the vacuum switch?
 
Ok, thanks for your help everyone. I cleaned it again and it seems to be working fine. Happy New Year, all.

Unless you corrected something, you probably have a vacuum leak. Check your gaskets (dollar bill test).
