TROUBLESHOOTING THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION
See Below.
Disconnect the two black wires from the wire nuts. Test switch(s) for continu-
ity with a multimeter. If continuity is not indicated, switch(s) is defective and
must be replaced.
Note: Before replacing “OFF/ON” switch, be sure to check wiring for loose
connections or broken wires and repair as needed.
Check main burner orifice(s) for stoppage. Clean or replace.
Check vent system for obstructions.
A. Faulty Valve System.
B. “OFF/ON” or wall switch
defective.
A. Burner orifice plugged.
B. Obstructed vent system.
1. Burner will not light.
2. Burners come “ON” but
go “OFF.”
Note: Before troubleshooting, be sure that the appliance main line gas shut-off valve, the gas control valve and the wall switch are in
the “ON” position.
Important: Valve system troubleshooting should only be accomplished by a qualified service technician.
