WARNING!
TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY, BEFORE
SERVICING:
(A) DISCONNECT AC POWER FROM THE
UNIT.
(B) SHUT OFF THE GAS SUPPLY TO THE
UNIT.
(C) ALLOW THE UNIT TO COOL TO A SAFE
TEMPERATURE.
7.2 SPARK IGNITER
The spark igniter assembly (124570) is located
in the body of the burner (Figure 7.1). The igniter
may be HOT. Care should be exercised. It is
easier to remove the igniter from the unit after
the unit has cooled to room temperature.
To inspect or replace the Igniter (124570):
1. Set the ON/OFF switch on the control panel
to the OFF position and disconnect AC
power from the unit.
2. To access the spark igniter, remove the
unit’s left side paneland left rear cover.
3. Disconnect the igniter cable from the igniter
contact.
4. Using a 15/16” open-end wrench, remove
the igniter from the burner shell.
5. Inspect the igniter for erosion or carbon
build-up. If there is substantial erosion of the
spark gap or ground electrode, the igniter
should be replaced. If carbon build-up is
present, clean the igniter using fine emery
cloth. Repeated carbon build-up on the
igniter is an indication that a check of the
combustion settings is required. See
Section
4 for Combustion Calibration
procedures.
6. Prior to reinstalling the igniter, a conductive
anti-seize compound must be applied to the
igniter threads.
7. Reinstall the igniter in the burner shell. Do
Not over-tighten. A slight snugging up is
sufficient.
8. Reconnect the igniter cable.
9. Replace the left side panel and left rear
cover on the unit.
