TROUBLESHOOTING

Continued

OBSERVED PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSE

REMEDY

When igniter button is pressed on the 
remote  or  touch  pad,  the  pilot  sparks 
but there is no ignition.

1.  Gas supply turned off or equipment 

shutoff valve closed

2.  Air in gas lines.

3.  Thermocouple  circuit  between  the 

control valve and the control module 
is open.

4.  No gas to the ODS pilot

5.  Depleted  gas  supply  (propane/LP 

only)

6.  Valve  cable  is  disconnected  or 

broken.

7.  ODS pilot is clogged

8.  Gas regulator setting is not correct

1.  Turn on gas supply or open equip-

ment shutoff valve.

2.  Continue turning the burner system 

ON and OFF. Repeat igniting opera-
tion until air is removed. On fi rst time 
ignitions, air in the lines is common 
and  it  is  not  uncommon  to  repeat 
the ignition sequence 10 to 15 times 
before enough gas is at the ODS pilot 
for it to light.

3.  Check the thermocouple connection 

at the control valve and also at the 
control  module.  The  thermocouple 
connection  at  the  control  valve 
should  be  hand  tight  plus  1/4  to 
1/2 turn. You should not be able to 
loosen the thermocouple at the con-
trol valve with your hand. Check the 
thermocouple  terminal  connection 
at the control module. If it is loose, 
remove  it  with  needle  nose  pliers, 
using  the  pliers,  slightly  close  the 
terminal's  opening  and  reinstall  on 
to the control module.

4.  While the pilot is sparking, check for 

gas fl ow at the ODS pilot. If fl ow is 
present, try to light the pilot with a 
long reach lighter. If it will not light 
but the fl ame is disturbed, air is in 
the  line.  Cycle  through  the  ignition 
sequence to clear the line of air until 
gas is present. If no fl ow is present 
at the gas valve, check to see all shut 
off  valves  are  open.  Verify  proper 
pressure  is  supplied  to  the  valve. 
Excessive pressure can lock out the 
appliance's regulator. Also check to 
see that the wiring harness from the 
control valve is properly connected 
at  the  control  module.  The  wiring 
harness  connection  housing  can 
be  identifi ed  by  it's  blue  connector 
housing.

5.  Contact local propane/LP gas com-

pany.

6.  Connect valve cable correctly

7.  Clean  ODS  pilot

  (see  Cleaning  and 

Maintenance, 

Page  31

)

  or  replace 

ODS pilot assembly.

8.  Replace gas regulator
