Remedy
Check fuse or circuit breaker. Reset or replace as
necessary.
Disconnect all power to the controller. Disconnect
the wires from the controller. connect an ohmmeter
between the switch terminals. Lower the set point
of the controller, the switch should make. raise the
set point and re-check, switch should break. if the
controller operates improperly, replace it.

of the fuel pump may cause the burner
programmer to require resetting before the boiler
operates satisfactorily.

required. Check settings adjust if required.

Check voltage between transformer neutral at
terminal block to be sure transformer is being
powered.
Check voltage between pilot terminal and neutral
and ignition terminal and neutral. Check must be
made before the control locks out on safety. If no
power replace control.
