TROUBLE SHOOTING FLOW CHART
FOR HONEYWELL S8610 CONTROL SYSTEM
Manifold pressure in proper
range (3.8”-4.2” N.G.,
10”-11” L.P.) If no pressure on
manifold, during main flame
trial for ignition period. Check
for pressure at tappings of each
main valve. Replace valve
that shows no pressure at
downstream tapping while
powered with pressure at
upstream tapping
24V at terminals of
all valves in main
gas train
Check for loose or
broken wire between
main valves and
MV-MV/PV terminals
Replace S8610
module
With pilot lit: 24V
between the MV and
MV/PV terminals of
the S8610 module
Replace the pilot
assembly
Replace pilot solenoid
valve
Main Flame
Ignites
Insure pilot line and
pilot orifice are clear
and that the pilot is
undamaged. The pilot
ignites.
Pilot valves opens.
Confirm that gas is
present at pilot valve
inlet
Check for loose or
broken wire between
pilot valve and
PV-MV/PV terminals
24V at pilot gas
valve leads
Replace
S8610
module.
Adjust the pilot gas
pressure using the
pilot regulator. Pilot
ignition problems
can be caused by
high or low pilot
pressure.
Pilot ignites
During pilot ignition period (audible spark present)
check for 24V between PV and MV/PV terminals
of S8610 module.
Check for loose or broken ignition lead. Check for shorted pilot electrode.
If pilot and ignition lead test good replace S8610 module
A tripped Manual reset
High Limit may
indicate insufficient
water flow.
Check for open Limit in this 24V circuit
Operating Control, High limit, Flow Switch,
LWCO, High / Low Gas Pressure Switches,
Remote Operating Controls etc.
Check for broken or loose
connection to transformer if none
replace transformer
Check for tripped breaker or open safety
/ limit switch in supply voltage circuit
