Troubleshooting - Electronic Ignition
Problem (Ignition)
SECTION I
No sparks appear at
any electrodes when
control knob turned to
; no noise can be
heard from spark
module.
Possible Cause
• Battery not installed
properly.
• Dead battery.
• Button assembly not
installed properly.
• Faulty spark module.
• Check battery orientation.
• Has battery been used
previously?
• Check to insure threads are
properly engaged. Button
should travel up and down
without binding.
• If no sparks are generated
with new batter
y
and
g
ood wire
connections, module is faulty.
Preventio
• Install battery (make sure that “+” and “-”
connectors are oriented correctly, with “+” end up
and “-” end down.)
• Replace battery with new AAA-size alkaline battery.
• Unscrew button cap assembly and reinstall, making

• Remove and reconnect all output connections a
t
module and electrodes.
SECTION III
Sparks are present
but not at all
electrodes and/or not
at full strength
• Output lead connections
not connected.
• Electrical arc between
output wires and grill
frame.
• Weak battery.
• Electrodes are wet.
• Electrodes cracked or
Broken; “sparks at crack”
• Are output connections on
and tight?
• If possible, observe grill in
Dark location.Operate ignition
system and look for arcing
between output wires and
g
rill
frame.
• All sparks present but weak
or at slow rate.
• Has moisture accumulated
on electrode and/or in burner
ports?
• Inspect electrodes for cracks.
• Remove and reconnect all output connections at
module and electrodes.
• If sparks are observed other than from burner(s),
