Check for pilot. If pilot is not lit, try relighting the pilot
using instructions on water heater. The pilot can be hard
to see, so you may need to dim the room lights.
If pilot goes out as soon as control knob is released,
there is likely an electrical problem. Press the reset
button on the thermal switch. If thermal switch tripped,
you should hear or feel a click.
