Yep they run on 12V. First I'd make sure the thermostat is sending the proper voltage to the furnace to start. Check the ground wires on everything. On my '78 the vent blower starts first, runs for 20-30 seconds before it tries to light. If it doesnt light...(check the igniter and the vent to outside(wasps like to build nests in them)) the whole thing will shut down. If I remember correctly you then have to turn the thermostat off and then back on to restart.
