The problem can be solved by merely cleaning the flame sensor, but if the issue persists, you may have to get the flame sensor replaced. You can use a soft abrasive pad to clean the flame sensor.
Could also be the "sail switch".
Without info from the control board ???

The led is on the bottom back corner of "your" board.
Might be hard to see, wait till dark to do a reset and start. After it fails look for a solid on off or blinking led.
