Does spark stay on

for more than 30 seconds

after the pilot lights?

Is 24 VAC

between Terminal 3

and ground?

Is inlet gas pressure

per manufacturer’s

specifications?

Correct

G670

Make sure sensor cable

and high voltage cable are

separated and not wrapped

around any pipe or accessories.

Is sensor cable

securely connected

to Terminal 4 and

flame sensor?

Connect

Is main

valve wiring

securely connected to

Terminal 3 and

ground?

Replace

main valve

Is sensor

ceramic cracked?

Is cable

grounded out?

Is sensor or

sensor connector

shorted out to metal

surface?

Is there

continuity and good

insulation in the

sensor cable?

Replace

cable

Disconnect main valve

lead from Terminal 3

Disconnect sensor

cable from Terminal 4

Replace

sensor

Connect DC microammeter

between sensor cable terminal and

Terminal 4. Observe correct polarity.

See Figure 20.

Replace

G670

Is DC current

0.2 microamperes or

greater with pilot only

operation?

Check for:
- proper gas pressure
- clean pilot assembly
- tight mechanical and electrical connections

If there is not improvement, change the
flame sensor length or the orifice size and
perform any necessary turn down tests.
