Thermocouple
Servicing
Instructions
■ Do not use pliers when removing or tightening the
attachment nut or connector nut. Doing so will
round off the nuts creating service problems.
■ Insure dirt or debris has not fallen into the power
unit prior to thermocouple installation. Dirt and
debris will block the electrical pathway of the
thermocouple, creating pilot outages.
■ Insure the thermocouple is fully and firmly
positioned in the pilot bracket by either its
attaching nut or clip.
■ Do not make sharp kinks or bends in the
thermocouple’s copper tube. Doing so may
damage the thermocouple.
