PRE-TROUBLESHOOTING
Before any extensive trouble-shooting, perform the following:
Ensure That:
— Voltage (120 vac) is supplied to the appliance.
— System control (tank temperature control, thermostat, etc.) is calling
for appliance operation (call for heat).
— Other contacts (switches) are closed (relay, low water cutoff, flow
switch, coil protector, pressure switch, etc.).
— Gas supply pressure is within the maximum and minimum operating
ranges listed on the appliance rating plate/label.
— Voltage (24 vac) is supplied by transformer.
— Appliance is wired according to wiring diagram.
Note:  Cross wiring the 24 volt circuit of the relay will short the transformer.
— All wire terminals/connectors are firmly attached to valves, modules,
switches, limit controls, etc.
— For LP models only check for possible lockout condition of the ignition
module.
