a.If the reading is more than 175 milli-volts and the automatic valve still does not come on, replace the control.

b.If the closed circuit reading (“A” reading) is less than 175 milli-volts, determine cause for low reading, proceed to Section B below.

B.Thermopile Output Reading Check

(“B” Reading - Thermostat contacts OPEN - Main burner OFF)

1.Check gas pressure to the unit. If gas pressure is within minimum and maximum on data plate, then check pilot voltage, 500 milli-volts minimum. If the minimum milli-volt reading is not obtainable, replace pilot.
