My indicator light turns bright green right away when the flame lights.  Is
that an indication that the thermocouple is, in fact, working and properly
aligned, or is it more complicated than that?

If you have a voltmeter, you could check the millivolts the thermocouple
produces.  When they get old they produce less.  People who service furnaces

replace them a lot.
I'm not sure what the specs are, perhaps that can be looked up.
