C. Module is not grounded.

Verify module is securely grounded to metal chassis of ap-

E. Module.

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

 

 

Remove ignitor wire “I” from 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.
