CAUTION: Make certain power to water heater is "OFF" before removing protective cover FOR ANY REASON.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation. VERIFY PROPER OPERATION AFTER SERVICING.
CAUTION: For your safety DO NOT attempt repair of gas piping, remote control, burners, vent connectors or other
safety devices. Refer repairs to qualified service personnel.

PROBABLE CAUSE
Temperature setpoint achieved and
burner is off
Water temperature is below set-
point and burner is on
Pilot tube restriction, carbon build-
up on electrode, pilot wire damage
or gas supply
Pressure switch tube blockage or
faulty pressure switch.
Vent blockage or improper instal-
lation, switch tube blockage, faulty
switch, blower improper operation
or temperature switch open
Thermal well fault, gas control
fault or tank is not filled with
water
Pilot or burner valve has failed
open
Insufficient gas supply, unstable
pilot, carbon buildup on electrode
or wire/pilot tube damage
Vent blockage or improper instal-
lation, switch tube blockage, faulty
switch, blower improper operation,
blower temperature switch open or
excessive wind at vent termination
Pilot tube restriction, low gas sup-
ply pressure, carbon buildup on
electrode, wire/pilot tube damage
or combustion air port blockage
Valve stuck in open position
Insufficient gas supply , pilot damage
or gas valve damage
Gasoline or other flammable gas
was detected near the appliance or
the sensor has failed
Flammable vapor sensor resistance
is out of range, wiring to FV sen-
sor is faulty or control is faulty
Thermal well fault
Thermal well fault or gas control
fault
Gas control valve needs to be reset
or has been damaged
