EFFIKAL RVGP-KSF-SERIES FLUE DAMPER TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Do not turn damper open manually or motor damage will result, use the service switch. All readings are taken 

from harness receptacle. Do not push meter leads into harness receptacle. This opens the pins and will 

create connection problems.

NORMAL SEQUENCE OF OPERATION 

     

B. DAMPER HAS OPENED, 

  NO COMBUSTION

  VOLTAGE ACROSS:

  4 & 1; 4 & 2; 4 & 3: 

1. Check for power at ignition module terminals.  If 24 VAC power is present damper

 

   

    is working properly. 

 

 

   

2. Defective component in water heater after the flue damper. 

 

   

3. If 24 VAC is not present at the ignition module, look for  loose or broken 

        

  connections between damper and ignition module.

   

4.  If the connections from damper to ignition module seem  proper, replace damper    

   

  assembly. If a damper assembly  is not available, place the service switch in the 

 

   

  hold open  position. This  should keep the damper in the open position and allow 

 

   

  the customer to have automatic heat, until a replacement damper can be installed.

C. DAMPER ROTATES  

     CONTINUOUSLY 

Change the entire damper assembly

D. DAMPER STICKS 

1.  Make sure no screws obstruct the damper blade.

   

2.  Make sure damper pipe assembly is not egg shaped.

   

3.  Make sure damper rod is not rubbing on pipe assembly.  

        

  See figure on front page of this insert sheet

   

ABNORMAL OPERATION

A. NOTHING WORKING

  NO VOLTAGE ACROSS:

  4 & 1 

1. High Limit has tripped and is OPEN. Determine reason for tripping of high limit   

   

2. Bad Transformer

   

3. Loose or broken connections

   

4. Blown fuse or circuit breaker

   

5. Disconnect switch off

   

6. Harness not plugged into water heater receptacle

A. FLUE DAMPER OPEN OR OPENING

  (Unit is calling for heat and damper disc should be in vertical position)

  VOLTAGE ACROSS:

  4 & 1 

All Times that High Limit is closed 

  4 & 2 

Calling for Heat 

Open or Opening 

  4 & 3 

During Combustion 

Damper Open+

B.

 

FLUE DAMPER CLOSED (Unit is not calling for heat and damper disc should be in horizontal position)

  NOTE: POSITION 4 IS COMMON AND POSITION 3 IS HOT 24 VAC

  VOLTAGE ACROSS: 

  4 & 1 

All Times that High Limit is closed

  NO VOLTAGE ACROSS:

  4 & 3 or 4 & 2 

1.Thermostat not calling for heat. 

 

IMPORTANT: DAMPER MUST BE OPEN BEFORE COMBUSTION TAKES PLACE.  If all steps have 

been tried and damper problems persists, contact State Water Heaters (800) 365-8170.

 WARNING

Do not negate the action

of any existing safety

or operational controls.
