With proper installation, operation, and maintenance your gas appliance will provide years of trouble-free service.  If you do 
experience a problem, this troubleshooting guide will assist a qualifi ed service technician in the diagnosis of a problem and 
the corrective action to be taken. This troubleshooting guide can only be used by a qualifi ed service technician.  Contact 
your dealer to arrange a service call by a qualifi ed service technician.

Symptom

Possible Cause

Corrective Action

1. Pilot won’t light. 

The ignitor/module 
makes noise, but no 
spark.

A.  Incorrect wiring.

Verify “S” wire (white) for sensor and “I” wire (orange) for ignitor are 
connected to correct terminals on module and pilot assembly.

B.  Loose connections or electrical 

shorts in the wiring.

Verify no loose connections or electrical shorts in wiring from mod-
ule to pilot assembly. Verify connections underneath pilot assembly 
are tight; also verify igniter and fl ame sense wires are not grounding 
out to metal chassis, pilot burner, pilot enclosure, mesh screen if 
present, or any other metal object. 

C.  Ignitor gap is too large.

Verify gap of igniter to right side of pilot hood. The gap should be 
approximately .17 in. or 1/8 in. (3 mm).

2. Pilot won’t light, 

there is no noise or 
spark.

A.  No power or transformer installed 

incorrectly or depleted batteries.

Verify that transformer is installed and plugged into module. Check 
voltage of transformer at connection to module. Acceptable read-
ings of a good transformer are between 6.4 and 6.6 volts AC.  Bat-
tery power supply voltage must be at least 4 volts.  If less than 4 
volts, replace batteries.

B.  A shorted or loose connection in 

wiring confi guration or wiring har-
ness.

Remove and reinstall the wiring harness that plugs into module. 
Verify there is a tight fi t. Verify pilot assembly wiring to module. Re-
move and verify continuity of each wire in wiring harness.  Replace 
any damaged components.

C.  Improper wall switch wiring.

Verify that 110/VAC power is “ON” to junction box.

D.  Module not grounded.

Verify black ground wire from module wire harness is grounded to 
metal chassis of appliance.

3. Pilot sparks, but 

Pilot will not light.

A.  Gas supply.

Verify that incoming gas line ball valve is “open”. Verify that inlet 
pressure reading is within acceptable limits.

B.  Ignitor gap is too large.

Verify gap of igniter to right side of pilot hood. The gap should be 
approximately .17 in. or 1/8 in. (3 mm).

C.  Module is not grounded.

Verify module is securely grounded to metal chassis of appliance.

D.  Pilot valve solenoid. 

Verify that 1.5 to 1.8 VDC is supplied to pilot solenoid from module.  
If below 1.5 volts, replace module.  If 1.5 volts or greater, replace 
valve.

A.  IntelliFire Plus™ Ignition System
