present, or any other metal object.

 

 

 

 

C. Ignitor gap is too large.

Verify gap of igniter to right side of pilot hood. The gap should be

 

 

approximately .17 in. or 1/8 in. (3 mm).

C. Improper wall switch wiring.

Verify that 120/VAC power is “ON” to junction box.

 

 

 

 

D. Module not grounded.

Verify black ground wire from module wire harness is grounded to

 

 

metal chassis of appliance.

B. Ignitor gap is too large.

Verify gap of igniter to right side of pilot hood. The gap should be

 

 

approximately .17 in. or 1/8 in. (3 mm).

 

 

 

 

C. Module is not grounded.

Verify module is securely grounded to metal chassis of appliance.

 

 

 

 

D. Pilot valve solenoid

Verify that 1.5 to 1.8 VDC is supplied to pilot solenoid from module.

 

 

If below 1.5 volts, replace module. If 1.5 volts or greater, replace

 

 

valve.
