Pilot Ignition Failure
Pilot ignition requires both HF from the arcstarter (either the Remote Arcstarter
(RAS) or GCM 1000), the pilot contactor on and for units with chopper pilot
regulator, enabling the pilot regulator circuit.
Causes for 1-2 code:
• No HF
• Pilot Contactor not closed
• Pilot Regulator (chopper) has no power.
• Pilot Regulator (chopper) not enabled
• No pilot demand to chopper
• Pilot Regulator (chopper) defective
No spark at RAS spark gap
Pilot ignition phase starts at end of pre-flow or immediately after applying Start
if system is still in post-flow. If pilot doesn’t ignite within 15 seconds of entering
ignition phase, system faults and sets code 1-2.
1. Check that spark gap is set for 0.062” +/- 0.002”. If gap is too high there may
not be enough voltage from T1 to fire the gap.
2. 120VAC from J59-7 & 9 on the power supply connects to J58- 7 & 9 on the
RAS or GCM 1000. From J58 it goes directly to the line filter and passes
through the filter to primary of T1. During the ignition phase, for 15 seconds
following Preflow, check for 120 VAC on the T1 side of the line filter.
• If 120 VAC not present go to step 3.
• If 120 VAC is present and still no spark, T1 may be bad. Remove power
and measure resistance of T1 primary and secondary. T1’s primary should
measure about 3-7 ohms. It’s secondary about 25-35 K ohms. If either
measurement not correct replace T1.
