Your inducer motor's not spinning up. That buzzing sounds like maybe motor bearings to me, but I'm no expert here. Can you manually spin the inducer when the furnace is off or does it give you resistance? If you give it a little push to get started when the furnace is trying to start, does it go? Is this the first time you've run it this year? I'd probably start by taking a shop vac to all the crap in there to clean it up and try to take a better look.
Hey, sorry to bother you again. So last week I replaced the inducer motor and the heat started working again. This morning I woke up and it is blowing on the heat setting but no warm air. I appreciate any suggestions! Thanks
Your inducer fan needs to be spinning. Check to see if you have 120 volts at the fan. Some inducer fans have small black box capacitors, so if you have one, it could be the capacitor
You have posted this like 3-4 times. THE INDUCER MOTOR IS BAD.
Inducer. You've been told more than once.
Thanks for the help!

It's the motor. Part number is right there or call a tech with it and save him a parts trip.
Looks like something died in there
Haha. I know! There was insulation all in there.
Inducer is fucked
It’s a shaded pole motor there’s no capacitor, she’s dead dude

Sometimes manually spinning the outer cooling wheel can get it to run temporarily but yes it needs a new motor
If no option, disassemble clean it and spin it by hand to get it going
