Corrective Action
Cad cell is defective, sees external light, or connections have
shorted. Go to step 4.
Eliminate external light source or permanently shield cad cell.
•
Replace cad cell with new cad cell and recheck.
•
If indicator light does not turn off, remove yellow lead wires
from R7184 and recheck.
•
If indicator light is still on, replace the R7184 control.
•
If the indicator light turns off, replace cad cell bracket
assembly.
If flame is present, replace the oil valve.
Trouble is in thermostat circuit. Check thermostat-wiring
connections.
If connections are clean and tight, check thermostat wires for
continuity.
•
Disconnect line voltage power and open line switch.
•
Check all wiring connections.
•
Tighten any loose connections and recheck.
•
If burner still doesn't start, replace R7184.
If burner still doesn't start, check the oil burner motor. It may be
seized or burned out.
Corrective Action
Go to Step 8.
Verify that the control is not in restricted mode. (See notes at end of
