Corrective Action
A. Check thermostat/wiring for proper
connections. Place jumper wire across
terminals at thermostat. If burner comes on,
replace defective thermostat. If not OK, place
jumper across thermostat wires at gas valve.
If burner comes on, tighten connections, or
replace faulty wires.
B. Check thermopile output, using a milli-volt
meter. If the optional on/off kit has not been
installed, take the readings across generator
terminals of the gas valve. TPTH and TP).
With the on/off kit, take the readings across
TH and Terminal block (which corresponds
to #3 on the switch). Milli-volt reading should
be greater than 325 mV. If not, replace the
pilot assembly. If the meter reading is OK,
but the burner does not come on, replace the
gas valve.
C. Remove and check burner orifice, clean or
replace. Note: do not use any metal cleaning
device, as this may damage the orifice.
A. Adjust pilot flame size and assure that the
flame is aimed directly at the thermopile.
correct inlet pressure is present for the type
of gas being used. If propane pressure is
inconsistent, check for water condensation at
the regulator.
A. Clean and/or adjust the pilot flame for
