The sail switch (wind switch) is inside the furnace near the blower. The air flow from the blower deflects the switch and tells the controller board there is enough air flow to light the furnace. Any thing that reduces air flow can prevent the sail switch from working.
Intake for burner may be plugged.
Exhaust may be plugged.
The sail on the sail switch may accumulate stuff on it.
Heat ducts may be closed or plugged.
Return air may be blocked.
The gas to the furnace may be turned off. My furnace does not have a shut off valve, but yours may.
Igniter may be corroded and so not making spark.
