Default Furnace Issue

Thanks Rusty, very informative feedback.

I know I don't have a thermostat in the stack chimney, so where is this "photo cell" located?

FYI, I have a fairly new Honeywell Primary Oil Control (R7184U) 9 months old, and Beckett Ignitor module, less than 3 mos. old. Contacts adjusted at time of installation.

Not sure if Ignitor or control chamber, or stack full os soot? Would think oil dealer(s) would have checked those things at the time parts were replaced
They're the experts right? I'm just the consumer, writing the checks !

Is the 'photo cell' located in or around the furnace chamber, or maybe in the
"Primary Oil Control " housing?

Thanks,
BD
