Troubleshooting American Flame Gas Control System (continued)

Main flame will not light

Verify the gas supply is turned on.

 

Ensure the pilot flame will ignite. If not, see pilot flame troubleshooting above.

 

Make sure the green and white leads from the module are securely connected to

 

the terminals labeled “MAIN: on the valve body.

 

Make certain the pilot flame is in contact with the flame rectification sensor on the

 

pilot assembly. This valve is equipped with a pilot flame adjustment screw. If the

 

pilot flame is too small it will not contact the flame rectification sensor and will not

 

complete the safety circuit.

 

Ensure the pilot flame is properly located to ignite the main flame.

Flame height adjustment will

are securely connected to the red and black leads from the motor drive or H/L latch-

 

ing solenoid located on the valve body (red to red and black to black).

 

Make sure the Pulse/Continuous button on the Power Module is set to Continuous

 

mode. If flame does not continuously change (increase or decrease in size) while

 

holding down the ON H/L button, the power module mode must be changed. Hold

 

down the Pulse/Continuous button on the Power Module for 10 to 15 seconds to

 

change mode from pulse to continuous. Re-try flame adjustment.

 

Check functionality with all transmitters to determine if there is an issue with the

 

main control system or an individual transmitter. If the issue is with an individual

 

transmitter, make sure the batteries in both the transmitter and receiver are in-

 

stalled in the proper direction and are not drained. Individual battery voltage should

 

be no less than 1.4V for AA and AAA batteries, 2.8V for button cells, and 9.0V for

 

12V batteries.

Unit will not respond in THERMO mode.

(When using thermostatic transmitters only)

Ensure the thermostatic transmitter is within the 20’ operational range.

Make sure an ON or OFF command was not last sent from another transmitter. These commands will override the thermal commands from the handheld transmit- ter. To return the system to THERMO mode, press either ON or OFF on the ther- mostatic transmitter, then press the MODE button to put the system in THERMO mode. Press and hold the SET button to change the set temperature.

Verify the set temperature on the thermostatic remote is at least 2 degrees above or below the room temperature. The system will not react to temperatures within 2 degrees of the set temperature.
