Servicing of the igniter and electrode is needed
when a spark is not observed at the electrode when
pushing the igniter button. This may happen with hard
use over a long period of time, or due to dust and dirt
accumulation.
If you do not see a spark being generated at the
electrode check the following areas:
A. Igniter
1. Remove the wire from the push button igniter.
2. Position a screwdriver tip about 1/8 in. from igniter.
See Fig. 20.
3. Holding the screwdriver by its handle, push the
igniter's button several times. If spark is not seen,
replace the igniter. If spark is observed, proceed to
electrode servicing.

B. Electrode
1. Ensure the wire between the electrode and the
igniter is securely connected.
2. Verify that the electrode's insulator body is not
cracked and that the electrode rod does not move
within its the body. See Fig. 21. If it does, replace
the electrode.
3. Check the wire for nicks, cuts, or mars. Nicks or
cuts will prevent a spark from being generated at
the electrode tip. Replace the electrode if neces-
sary. The electrode ships with the wire.
4. Electrode tip gap can vary depending on model of
heater. Ensure proper position.
