1 No Ignition Electrode is grounded. Porcelain is cracked. Replace
(lack of spark) Improperly positioned electrode Recheck dimensions
Loose ignition wire connection Reconnect or tighten
Defective ignition transformer Check transformer, replace
2 No Ignition Lack of fuel, no gas pressure, closed fuel valve Check fuel supply and valves
(spark, no flame) No voltage to pilot solenoid Check electrical connections
Defective pilot solenoid valve Replace
Incorrect location of pilot Check location of pilot
Improper raw gas tube position Check location of raw gas tube
Improperly positioned electrodes Recheck dimensions
Too much combustion air flow Check air damper position
3 Pilot not detected Scanner tube not positioned correctly Check location of scanner tube
(flame present) Scanner tube dirty or wet (oil film) Clean scanner tube / scanner
Scanner or amplifier faulty Replace
Pilot improperly positioned Check pilot position
Incorrect gas pressure to pilot Readjust pressure
Combustion air flow rate too high Readjust damper
4 No main gas flame Weak scanner signal Clean scanner lens and tube
(pilot OK) Damper or fuel control valve setting incorrect Readjust
Fuel valve(s) not opening Check wiring to valves
5 No main oil flame Weak scanner signal Clean scanner lens and tube
