SYMPTOM                                                                                 WHAT TO CHECK 

a.

 

Lighting procedure. See the "Operation" section of 
this manual.

 

b.

 

For defective switching across either the water 
level control or the pressure switches by testing for 
continuity. Replace defective units. (Ref. 22 or 23, 
24).*

 

c.

 

For defective gas valve and replace if necessary 
(Ref. 10).*

 

Pilot light does not stay lighted.

 

d.

 

Pilot gas adjustment and readjust, if necessary 
(Ref. 17).*

 

Generator builds up pressure, shuts down, and fails to 
come on again.

 

a.

 

Pilot light. If out. see "Operation" section of this 
manual.

 

a.

 

Pilot light. If it is out, see the "'Operation" section 
of this manual.

 

Main burners will not light.

 

b.

 

Gas valve. Replace, if defective (Ref. 10).*

 

a.

 

That electric power is being supplied to the unit.

 

b.

 

For 115V input to the control module (Ref. 31)*

 

c.

 

For a 24 V supply at the transformer (Ref. 31).'

 

d.

 

For 24 V between pins "2" and "4" of the control 
module (Ref. 25).'

 

e.

 

Voltage of supply to the igniter by removing the 
igniter plug from the receptacle of the control 
module and reading voltage across the pins of the 
igniter receptacle (Ref. 25).* If 115 V is not 
present, replace the control module. (Ref. 25).*

 

C. Model NGB/Eonly

 

Glow coil does not heat.

 

f.

 

Voltage across the terminals of the main gas valve 
solenoid. If 24 VAC is present. replace the gas 
valve assembly. If not, replace the control module. 
(Ref. 10 and 25)*

 

a.

 

Voltage across the terminals of the gas valve 
solenoid. If 24 VAC is present, replace the gas 
valve assembly. If not, replace the control module. 
(Ref. 10 and 25).*

 

b.

 

Ground connections of module terminal. "12" 
(green wire) for firm attachment (Ref. 25)*

 

c.

 

Flame sensing probe and wire "11" (blue) for a 
short to ground. If necessary, correct the short or 
replace the probe (Ref. 20).*

 

d.

 

For a short to ground at the 24 V source. If the 
transformer is shorted, remove the short and 
replace the control module. (Ref. 31 and 25).*

 

Burner does not come on. but the glow coil

 

heats.

 

e.

 

After the transformer has been replaced, check the 
flame sensing function. If flame sensing is not 
working. reverse the leads of either the 115 V or 
24 V side of the control transformer (Ref. 20 and 
31).*
