3. Operational Check 
     
:  Before troubleshooting, familiarize yourself with the start up and 
check out procedures 
 
NOTICE: After reassembling the appliance, check for fuel oil leakage from 
the supply piping. 
 
 
a.  Check proper operation of the ignition system and for proper combustion.  
 
b.  Observe the main burner flame. If the flame appears strange or abnormal in 
character, look for a component or components that were not reassembled 
correctly. If the components have been reassembled correctly, check for a 
blocked vent, malfunctioning combustion air blower or fuel pump, and partially 
blocked burner nozzle.  
 
C. Electrical System 
 
: When servicing controls, label all wires prior to disconnecting. 
Correctly reconnect any wires removed during servicing. Wiring errors can 
cause improper and dangerous operation.  Dangerous operation can result in 
injury or damage. 
 
1.  Check all wiring for loose connections and any signs of damage, or unusual 
wear. Replace any damaged or frayed wiring and tighten any loose connections. 
 
2.  Use a voltmeter, or a multimeter, to check for adequate voltage at the field 
connections when the appliance operating. 
 
3.  Use an ammeter, or a multimeter, to check the current draws of the blower 
motor, burner assembly, and air conditioning compressor to assure they are not 
exceeding rating label current specifications for each component. Also, refer to 
Table 5 for electrical specifications on these components. 
 
4.  Check for correct operation and proper settings (if manually adjustable) of all 
controls.
