1. Close the fuel supply valve to the heater and
disconnect the electrical supply before servicing
unless necessary for your service procedure.
2. Clean the heater’s orifice with compressed air or a
soft, dry rag. Do not use files, drills, broaches, etc. to
clean the orifice hole. Doing so will enlarge the hole,
causing combustion or ignition problems. Replace
the orifice if it cannot be cleaned properly.
3. The high limit switches, HEAT/VENT switch, and
thermostat can be tested by disconnecting the leads
at the component, and jumpering the leads together:
-- Reconnect the electrical supply and open fuel supply
valves.
-- If the heater lights, the component is defective and
must be replaced.
-- Do not leave the jumper on or operate the heater if
the part is defective. Replace the part immediately.
-- An alternate method for checking the components is
to perform a continuity check.
4. The air proving switch must not be jumpered. If
jumpered, the ignition control will not allow heater
operation. Test the air proving switch for continuity. If
defective, replace the switch.
5. Open the respective case panel for access to burner
or fan related components.
6. Disconnect the electrical leads for the respective
component.
7. For reassembly, reverse the respective service
procedure. Ensure gas connections are tightened
securely.
8. After servicing, start the heater to ensure proper
operation and check for gas leaks.
