1. Replace ignitor if wire is prop-

erly connected and you have 

no spark

lot lights turn off pilot and push

improper gas/air mixture cause 

improper lighting and a longer 

purge period is recommended. If 

pilot will not light, check gap at 

electrode and pilot. Gap should 

be 1/8" for strong spark. If elec-

trode is okay, replace pilot

3. 

LP  only:

 Check fuel  supply 

and contact local propane/LP 

supplier if low.
