TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE – ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION
Check voltage on AC terminals of module an/or batteries. Voltage should be
between 2.7 and 3.2 VAC. Make sure wire connections are secure.
Check for visible cracked casing, cuts, etc.
Check pilot assembly for visibly broken spark electrode, etc.
Check voltage on DC terminal of batteries. The value should be around 3.0V.
Make sure gas supply is turned on.
Make sure sensor wire connection is securely connected.
Make sure black, green, and orange wires are securely connected to the valve.
Make sure black sensor wire and black igniter wire are securely connected to
ignition module.
Purge gas line of air.
Test voltage at AC terminals of module and/or batteries.
Voltage should be between 2.7 and 3.2 VAC.
Set gas supply to “ON.”
Make sure black, green, and orange wires are securely connected to the valve.
Make sure black sensor wire (“S”) and black igniter wire (“I”) are securely
connected to ignition module.
