Problem Possible Cause Solution
Spark will not arc to the pilot after
repeated pressing of spark ignitor Defective piezo ignitor Check connections to ignitor -If ignitor connections are good but there is no
spark-replace ignitor
Broken spark electrode -Check for broken ceramic insulation
replace, electrode if broken
Miss-aligned spark electrode -If spark is not arcing from the electrode to pilot-
adjust by loosening screws on pilot base.
Adjust away from burner and re-tighten
Pilot will not remain lit Problem with thermocouple circuit -Check for proper connection of thermocouple
to rear of valve. If loose, tighten lightly
-Check pilot for full flame impingement around
thermocouple. If the pilot is to small - Check
gas-pressure, adjust pilot rate screw, check pilot
head for blockage.
-Check thermocouple voltage at rear of valve-
must be greater than 5 mV. If low, replace
thermocouple.
Air in gas line - (Pilot flame dies while
knob is depressed.) -Bleed line. -Check gas line pressure.
-Contact dealer.
Burners will not remain lit Problem with thermopile circuit -Check gasline pressure.
-Check for flame impingement on thermopile, if
low see “Pilot will not stay lit”
-Check thermopile for a Minimum of 300 mV
when burner switched on.
-Check wiring to thermostat for breaks.
-Check for spillage at draft hood that may trip
spill switch.
Flame lifting - Leak in vent pipe
- Improper vent configuration
- Terminal may be recirculating flue
gases
-check for leaks in vent connections
-check vent configuration with manual
