The problem may be:
1. Loose or improper wiring
2. System is not grounded
3. Igniter wire is loose or disconnected
4. Improper gap between igniter and pilot hood
*

this the remote must be ―unlearned‖ from the system.
** IntellifFire Plus IPI ignition module emits beeps during operation. The noise referred to in this section is noise

Go to page 29 to familiarize yourself with
module diagnostic codes.
** Notice **
Disconnect power to the system
prior to disconnecting any compo-

REMOTE module switch to the
OFF position. Interrupting power to
stepper motor can freeze motor po-
sition (see page 29).
It is not recommended to operate
the ignition control module with
disconnected wire connections. A
short could cause permanent dam-

Introducing the pilot sensor rod with
a false flame, such as from a flame
stick, will cause the module to go
into lock-out mode. This is due to a
