TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Fire sparks but pilot does not light
No gas to fire - check isolators are open.
Pipe work blockage or kink - rectify.
Air not fully purged - re-purge supply or wait longer.
Spark earthing to metal work - check gap is correct.
Blocked pilot - check and replace where necessary.
Pilot lights but then goes out
Severe restriction in gas supply - clear obstruction.
Faulty thermocouple - replace pilot unit.
Blocked pilot - replace.
Blocked lint gauze - clean.
Hold control knob in for longer.
Check the control knob does not foul on the data plate.
If the pilot will not stay lit there is a problem with dirt, the
gas supply, or the thermocouple is in need of
replacement. Modifications are dangerous and can have a
serious unseen effect on safety.
NEVER MODIFY OR BEND THE THERMOCOUPLE TO
MAKE THE PILOT STAY ALIGHT
.
Fire does not spark at pilot
Electrode lead detached - refit.
Spark gap too large or small - reset correctly.
Faulty piezo unit - replace gas valve.
Debris shorting out electrode - clean.
Spark shorting to metalwork under tray
- realign electrode lead.
Fire runs for a time and then cuts off
Check pilot has extinguished.
Ensure room sizing and ventilation are adequate
(See Section 3.1and 4.1)
Loose or faulty thermocouple - rectify.
Blocked pilot - replace.
Dirt or lint in pilot aeration hole or on the lint gauze -
clean thoroughly.
If the pilot will not stay lit there is a problem with dirt, the
gas supply,or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Modifications are dangerous and can have a serious unseen
effect on safety.
NEVER MODIFY OR BEND THE THERMOCOUPLE TO
MAKE THE PILOT STAY ALIGHT
.
Pilot flame shrinks when
Poor gas flow to fire - check pressure with
fire is on high
fire on high.
If pressure is low - remove any restriction in
pipework or valve.
Check all isolators are adequately sized and fully open.
Check meter pressure is adequate.
If the pilot will not stay lit there is a problem with dirt, the
gas supply, or the thermocouple needs replacement.
Modifications are dangerous and can have a serious
unseen effect on safety.
NEVER MODIFY OR BEND THE THERMOCOUPLE TO
MAKE THE PILOT STAY ALIGHT
.
Fire smells when first lit or in use
Newness smell from brand new appliance. (See
Preliminary Notes section)
Leakage occurring - Carry out leakage test and
rectify any problems.
Low temperature sealants or combustible materials used
in incorrect positions.
