OBSERVED PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
REMEDY
ODS pilot lights but pilot
fl
ame goes
out before burners light.
1. Equipment shutoff valve not fully
open
2. Missing or weak batteries at
power supply box or remote.
3. Thermocouple circuit between
the ODS pilot and control mod-
ule is loose or damaged.
4. Pilot flame not touching ther-
mocouple, which allows ther-
mocouple to cool, causing pilot
fl
ame to go out. This problem
could be caused by one or both
of the following:
A) Low gas pressure or
B)Dirty or partially clogged ODS
pilot.
5. Thermocouple damaged
6. Control valve damaged.
1. Fully open equipment shutoff
valve.
2. Check batteries and replace if
needed. (Batteries in the power
supply box can be tested with a
multimeter at the two connec-
tions at the back of the battery
housing where the red and black
wires are connected. Set the
multimeter to DC voltage, initi-
ate the ignition sequence, and
observe the voltage while the
system is lighting (under load).
The system will not function
under 3.8 volts and batteries
should be replaced if the voltage
is under 4.0 volts.).
3. Check thermocouple terminal
connection at the control mod-
ule. If it is loose, remove it with
needle nose pliers, using the pli-
ers, slightly close the terminal's
opening and reinstall on to the
control module.
4. A) Contact local natural or pro-
pane/LP gas company.
B) Clean ODS pilot
(see Clean-
