system and let cool before ser-
vicing. Only a qualified service
person should service and repair
burner system or stove.

needle, or similar object to clean
pilot. This can damage pilot unit.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

1. Ignitor electrode not connected to igni-

tor cable

2. Ignitor cable pinched or wet

3. Piezo ignitor nut is loose

4. Broken ignitor cable
5. Bad piezo ignitor
6. Ignitor electrode broken
7. Ignitor electrode positioned wrong

1. Gas supply turned off or equipment

6. Pilot is clogged

7. Gas regulator setting is not correct

1. Gas control knob not fully pressed in
2. Gas control knob not pressed in long

enough

3. Equipment shutoff valve not fully open
4. Pilot flame not touching thermocouple,

which allows thermocouple to cool,
causing pilot flame to go out. This prob-
lem could be caused by one or both of
the following:
A) Low gas pressure
B) Dirty or partially clogged pilot

5. Thermocouple connection loose at con-

trol valve

6. Thermocouple damaged
7. Control valve damaged

REMEDY

1. Reconnect ignitor cable

2. Free ignitor cable if pinched by any

metal or tubing. Keep ignitor cable dry

3. Tighten nut holding piezo ignitor. Nut

is located behind the mounting bracket

4. Replace ignitor cable
5. Replace piezo ignitor
6. Replace pilot assembly
7. Replace pilot assembly

1. Turn on gas supply or open equipment

shutoff valve

2. Turn gas control knob to PILOT position
3. Press in gas control knob while in PILOT

position

4. Continue holding down gas control

knob. Repeat igniting operation until air
is removed

5. Contact local propane/LP gas company

6. Clean pilot (see Cleaning and Mainte-

nance, page 28) or replace pilot assembly

7. Replace gas control

1. Press in gas control knob fully
2. After pilot lights, keep gas control knob

pressed in 30 seconds

3. Fully open equipment shutoff valve
4. A) Contact local gas company

B) Clean pilot (see Cleaning and
Maintenance, page 28) or replace pilot
assembly

5. Hand tighten until snug, then tighten

1/4 turn more

6. Replace thermocouple
7. Replace control valve

OBSERVED PROBLEM

spark at pilot

When ignitor button is pressed, there is
spark at pilot but no ignition
