9.1 Electrical

Carry out the preliminary electrical system checks as contained
in a multimeter instruction book.

Refer to electrical fault finding chart, diagram 9.1 and functional
flow wiring diagram 9.2.

On completion of the fault finding task which has required the
breaking and remaking of electrical connections, the checks for
earth continuity, short circuit, polarity and resistance to earth
must be repeated.

Ensure all connections are correctly made, that gas supply is available free of obstruction

and purged of air. Ensure that external controls, if fitted, are calling for heat.

YES

YES

Does sparking take

place, does milli-voltage

increase towards 5mV?

Pilot not lit.

Check condition of

electrode and HT lead.

Replace as necessary.

30 seconds after

a call for heat, is there

230V ac on

L and N CN6

NO

Is milli-voltage > 5mV?

Faulty PCB. Replace.

NO

Faulty thermocouple.

Replace.

Faulty gas control valve.

Replace.

Appliance working

satisfactorily.

NO

Faulty PCB.

Replace.

NO

YES

Does green light on

lockout reset button

illuminate and sparking

stop when milli-voltage

is >5mV?

YES

Is there 230V at

both connections on

the thermostat control

with reference

to neutral?

Is there 230V at

PIN EV2 on CN3 on

PCB with reference

to neutral?

YES

Check continuity of

lead from PCB to

gas control valve,

is there continuity?

YES

NO

NO

Faulty thermostat

control. Replace.

NO

Faulty PCB.

Replace.

NO

Faulty lead.

Replace.

NO

YES

The flue blockage

safety device

has operated, the main

burner has gone out.

Check adequate

ventilation is available,

check flue has not

YES

Turn control thermostat

knob to maximum.

Does main burner light?

YES

Does red light on

lockout reset button

illuminate?
