Corrective Action

Replace ignitor.

Spark should be approximately 1/8” to bottom of pilot hood. Adjust gap to give proper spark. Remove hands from electrode before pressing red button.

Check valve knob position & any shut-off valves. If propane, check for empty tank. Check pilot orifice; remove any blockage.

Replace pilot assembly.

Check for spark. If electrode connection is correct & no spark, replace ignitor.

Check log placement. Check pilot flame; adjust flame if necessary.

Check that pilot sensor connector is tight in valve.

Replace pilot sensor thermocouple.

Replace valve.

Remove voltage and replace valve.

Check ON/OFF switch for proper connections. Connect wires across terminal at ON/OFF switch. If burner comes on, replace ON/OFF switch. If burner doesn’t come on, connect to ON/OFF switch junctions at valve. If burner comes on, replace wires.

Check burner orifice, remove blockage.

Replace thermopile.

Check burner; place on orifice.

Check for loose connections; verify wiring (See Figure 20).

Replace valve.

Replace high limit switch or micro switch.

Check/ replace ON/OFF wiring system.

Replace thermopile.

Check log placement; check pilot flame, adjust flame if necessary.

Replace pilot sensor thermocouple.

No action necessary - glass will clear as appliance warms.
