Doc it lights and burns normal for about 10 seconds then shuts down, lights again burns for 10 seconds and shuts off. Does that three times then throws the code. Code says continuous flame not recognized.

hmmm....since it does light, that would indicate the gas regulator is opening...Look at the schematic Chuck and see if there are any sensors in that circuit that may be open...like a temperature sensor maybe.....There is often a over temp sensor that will fail and not allow the flame to stay lit.

Most of those sensors fail open when they go and you can bypass it to get your furnace going.
