5.
Light pilot flame.
6.
Verify that thermocouple is sufficiently immersed
in flame. Adjust pilot valve to allow more gas flow
if necessary.
7.
With thermostat off, allow pilot to burn for 3-4
minutes to stabilize voltage output from
thermocouple.
8.
Verify thermocouple output voltage.
A.
If 25 - 35 millivolts is measured, the
thermocouple is functioning properly.
B.
If less than 17 millivolts is measured, install
a replacement thermocouple.
9.
Remove test adapter.
