CAUTION

DO NOT use standard multimeter probes for this test. Doing

so will damage connector. Use special pin type electronic

probes or small diameter wire pins inserted into connector.

Disconnect thermal

well wire harness

If the control has gone into lockout due to

excessive tank temperature (four flash, 3

second pause) reset the control by rotating

the gas control knob to “OFF” position. Then

follow the lighting instructions and return the

gas control knob to the desired setpoint.

Observe the water heater operation. If

the gas control continues to lockout due

to excessive tank temperature, proceed

to thermal sensor and harness testing to

determine the cause.

THERMAL SENSOR AND

HARNESS TESTING

Position the gas control knob to the

“OFF” position and disconnect the

thermal sensor harness from the gas

control.

Using a multi-meter set to the

Ohms setting, determine the

resistance of thermal sensor .

(see caution photos at right)

Once the thermal sensor resistance values are

known, the water temperature must also be known

to determine if the resistance values are correct.

See page 9 to obtain water temperature.

Are thermal sensor and harness

resistance values correct?

Repeat Ohm measurement at the

sensor connector.

Are thermal sensor resistance

values correct?

Using a multi-meter set to the ohms setting, insert one meter probe (see

caution) into center wire position of thermal well connector, insert the second

probe (see caution) into either of the outside wire positions (see photo on left).

Alternate the probe on the outside position to the opposite outside wire position

(see photo on right).
