PROBLEM | POSSIBLE CAUSE | REMEDY |
When ignitor button is pressed, 1. Defective ignitor there is no spark at pilot
2. Defective pilot or misaligned electrode at pilot
3. No or low gas pressure
1.Replace ignitor if wire is prop- erly connected and you have no spark
2.Using a match, light pilot. If pi- lot lights turn off pilot and push piezo again. If pilot lights, an improper gas/air mixture cause improper lighting and a longer purge period is recommended. If pilot will not light, check gap at electrode and pilot. Gap should be 1/8" for strong spark. If elec- trode is okay, replace pilot
3.LP only: Check fuel supply and contact local propane/LP supplier if low.
LP and Natural: Check for kinked or bent hoses. Consult pipe fitter or plumber.
