It is intended for this manual to be used by qualified service personnel for the primary purpose of 

troubleshooting and repair of the Bradford White ECO-DEFENDER Series water heaters. 

The Honeywell WV8860 Gas Control will display status codes in the event of abnormal operation. Status 

codes are listed in the troubleshooting chart beginning on page 6 of this service manual. The troubleshooting 

chart will also indicate the probable cause for the status code and direct the service professional to a service 

procedure to properly diagnose the abnormal operation.  

Contact the Bradford White technical support group immediately if diagnosis cannot be made using the 

methods described in this service manual. 

Tools Required for Service 

Manometer: 

 

Multi-Meter: 

 

Electronic Probes: 

 

Thermometer: 

 

Water Pressure Gage: 

 

Various Hand Tools:

A liquid “U” tube type or a digital (magnahelic) type can be used.  This 

device is used to measure gas and/or air pressure and vacuum. 

A digital type is strongly recommended.  This device is used to measure 

electrical values.  The meter you select must have the capability to 

measure volts AC, volts DC, Amps, micro-amps and ohms. 

In some cases, standard multi-meter probes will damage or simply not be 

effective to obtain certain voltage and ohm readings.  It will be necessary to 

have special electronic “pin” type multi-meter probes.  These probes are 

available at most electronic wholesale outlets. 

Used to measure water temperature.  An accurate thermometer is 

recommended. 

Used to measure water supply pressure.  Also used to determine tank 

pressure by adapting to the drain valve of the heater. 

Pipe wrench, channel locks, open end wrenches (3/8”, 7/16”, 1/2”), 12” 

crescent wrench, allen wrench set, screw drivers (common & Phillip’s), 1/4” 

nut driver, pliers (common & needle nose), socket set, side cutters, wire 

cutters, wire strippers, wire crimpers, torpedo level, small shop vac, step 

ladder, flashlight and 5 gallon pail.
