SYMPTOM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Spark ignitor will not light

pilot and push the red button again. If pilot will not
light, check the gap at electrode and pilot; it should
be 1/8” to have a strong spark.
B. Defective ignitor (Push Button)
Push piezo Ignitor Button. Check for spark at
electrode and pilot. If no spark to pilot, and electode
wire is properly connected, replace ignitor.
2. Pilot will not stay lit after

The thermocouple operates the main valve opera-
tion (ON/ OFF). Clean and/or adjust pilot for maxi-
mum flame impingement on thermopile and thermo-
couple.
B. Defective automatic valve
Turn valve knob to “Pilot.” Maintain flow to pilot;
millivolt meter should read greater than 10 mV. If
the reading is okay and the pilot does not stay on,
replace the gas valve. NOTE: An interrupter block
(not supplied) must be used to conduct this test.
3. Pilot burning, no gas to

2. One of the wall switch wires may be grounded.
Remove wall switch wires from valve terminals if
pilot now stays lit, trace wall switch wiring for
ground. May be grounded to fireplace or gas
supply.
3. Check thermopile with millivolt meter. Take
reading at thermopile terminals of gas valve—
should read 250-300 millivolts (minimum 150)
while holding valve knob depressed in pilot
position and wall switch “OFF.” Replace faulty
thermopile if reading is below specified minimum.
