ELECTRICAL TROUBLE SHOOTING

W ARNING:

 

Only a trained technician should attem pt to

repair  a  pellet  heater  electrical  system .

Note: All tests should be accomplished with the unit
therm ostat by-passed. 

Rem ove both AC and DC power from  unit. The igniter
system  is protected with a 5 am p fuse located on the back
or side of the heater 

(Figure 1)

. The igniter is switched “Off”

and “On” by the control system  via a relay located in the
lower right pedestal in front of the control board
(EF3801/5001) or in lower left rear of the unit accessed
from  the back (EF4001). W iring on all igniter system s are
the sam e. The following test steps will require a m ulti-m eter
with AC/DC volt and ohm  functions:  

a.

Unplug heater from  wall outlet and 12VDC power!

b.

Rem ove 5 am p fuse holder cap and fuse by pressing
in and turning counter clockwise. Test fuse with ohm
m eter to confirm  is not “open”. If fuse is open go to
Testing Igniter “d”. If fuse is good continue.

c.

Check 115VAC power wire connection to relay and
neutral wire connection to igniter term inal. This can
be accom plished with the ohm  m eter. If wire is
disconnected or open replace.

 

d.

Disconnect igniter leads from  relay and neutral. Test
continuity with ohm  m eter between leads. If open
igniter is defective. If continuity exists then check for
internal grounding by checking each lead to the
shielded conduit of the igniter leads. If continuity
exists to ground then igniter is defective. If m eter
reads open on both leads to ground then igniter
should produce heat when properly connected to
115VAC.

 

e.

W ith igniter disconnected from  relay, attach volt
m eter (set m eter to 200VAC)  leads to relay 115VAC
out term inal and igniter neutral. Reapply 115VAC
power. Press operating button low. Relay should
im m ediately engage applying 115VAC to m eter. If
m eter has 115VAC then replace igniter as it should
be activated. If no AC power outputted from  relay.
Continue to next test.

 

f.

Disconnect DC control wires from  harness to relay.
Attach volt m eter (set m eter to 20VDC)  leads to
harness term inals. Reapply 115VAC power. Press
operating button low. Control system  should
im m ediately engage applying 12VDC to m eter. If
m eter has 12VDC then replace relay as it should be
activated. If relay does not engage, exchange control
board and/or m ain switch board.
