Check your filter and make sure its not clogged. Are all your registers open? If you have closed off to many it will cause the furnace to over heat and it will limit out. Fan switch is a possible as well.

Post your furnace brand and model if possible and it will help me diagnose. Is it Also if you are handy with a multi meter you can call me and I can walk you through further diagnosis.
