I have a similar issue. I replaced the ignitor first, and got intermittent heat for a while. I just replaced the control t-stat, and got heat for one or two loads, and now nothing. I can see the glow from the ignitor, but the gas flow does not seem to start, and the ignitor appears to turn off after 10 secs or so. With nearly $100 into this piece of junk, I’m ready to go back to electric. Hopefully you have some ideas that don’t involve more parts…
ps:
#4 t-stat did fail the test when I removed it, but after carrying it in my pocket for a day, it tested ok again…
Thanks
[QUOTE=Gene;5165]Hi mvetri
There are four parts you have to check. In order to do it you have to have a simple continuity meter.
The parts are:
- The igniter (#74 on the burner break down diagram)
- The flame sensor (#79 on the burner break down diagram)
- The safety thermostat (#33 on the cabinet break down diagram)
- The heat control thermostat (#15 on the motor break down diagram)
All of these parts must be normally closed. If any of them is open, it has to be replaced.
