Servicing Instructions 

Turn off gas and electrical before attempting any service 
to this appliance. Heater may be serviced by opening the 
door to control compartment. Rotate round disk on 
control door 90 degrees to open. Top of heater may be 
removed for servicing by removing six (6) screws holding 
top in place. The top should be removed if the gas 
controls, burner or burner orifice is to be replaced. 
1.  Removal of Burner 

a.  Remove grille by removing two (2) screws at one 

end of the grill near control door. Pull downward 
at the end and grill will be loose. The end of the 
grill is supported by two (2) pins that enter two (2) 
holes in the reflector’s far end. 

b.  Remove top of heater by removing six (6) screws 

holding top in place. 

c.  The burner can be removed without removing the 

pilot-electrode assembly. However, extreme care 
should be taken to prevent the burner from 
contacting the fragile electrode when removing or 
reinstalling the burner. To remove the pilot-
electrode assembly, disconnect the orange wire 
from the module connected to the electrode. 
Detach the pilot tubing. Remove the two screws 
holding the pilot-electrode in place. 

d.  Remove burner clip securing mixer inside control 

compartment. Be careful not to damage white 
insulation pads. 

e.  Remove 3/8” hex locknut located inside the 

burner orifice bracket holding piping assembly to 
burner. A 7/8” 12-point wrench is recommended 
to loosen the 3/8” locknut. 

f. 

Remove two (2) screws holding the end of the 
burner. Carefully slide burner down and out. 
When reinstalling, be sure both ends of the 
burner are beneath the reflector end flanges. 

g.  To reinstall burner, reverse procedure. 

2.  Removal of RAM-3 Direct Spark Ignition Control 

a.  Disconnect two 24 VAC power leads 
b.  Disconnect two gas valve leads. 
c.  Disconnect igniter lead from control 
d.  Disconnect green ground lead from casing. 
e.  Remove two (2) 8-32 x 1 1/4 screws and nuts 

holding control module in place. Screw heads are 
located on exterior front side of heater above 
control compartment door. 

f. 

If insufficient removal clearance, loosen control 
assembly and move out of way. 

Trouble Shooting 

1.  If no spark from electrode; or if gas valve doesn’t 

work then: 
a.  Check power supply. There should be 24 

VAC between the low voltage power wires. 
Use voltmeter between inlet 24 VAC wire and 
ground terminal at the electrode plate to 
measure 24 VAC. 

b.  Check continuity. Use ohmmeter. For 

example, check resistance between valve 
wire and ground. Should show almost no 
resistance (O ohms) through valve. If high 
resistance, check wire connectors. 

c.  Check spark gap. Spark gap should be 7/64” 

(.109”) between electrode tip, and pilot hood. 
If gap is too large, spark will occur at wrong 
location. If gap is too small it may not be hot 
enough to light pilot burner. 

d.  Be sure connectors are fully inserted into 

ignition control (See Wiring Diagram on 
rating plate). 

2.  If insufficient gas flow then: 

a.  Manual gas valve not full “ON”. Turn valve 

handle to full “ON” position. 

b.  Burner orifice plugged. Remove heater top, 

remove burner orifice (use ½” hex wrench) 
and thoroughly clean. Spiders often crawl 
into orifice hole and make a web, blocking 
the orifice.
