bly are tight; also verify connections are not grounding out to metal

 

 

chassis, pilot burner, pilot enclosure, mesh screen if 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).

 

 

 

 

D. Module.

Turn ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch to OFF position. Remove

 

 

ignitor wire “I” from module. Place a grounded wire about 3/16 in. (5

 

 

mm) away from “I” terminal on module. Place ON/OFF rocker switch

 

 

or wall switch in ON position. If there is no spark at “I” terminal module

 

 

must be replaced. If there is a spark at “I” terminal, module is fine.

 

 

Inspect pilot assembly for shorted sparker wire or cracked insulator

 

 

around electrode. Replace pilot if necessary.

D. Module not grounded.

Verify black ground wire from module wire harness is grounded to

 

 

metal chassis of appliance.

 

 

 

 

E. Module.

Turn ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch to OFF position. Remove

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. Module voltage output / Valve/Pilot

Verify battery voltage is at least 2.7 volts. Replace batteries if volt-
