3. Replace thermopile if millivolt reading is less than 300
millivolts when wall thermostat or remote bulb is turned OFF.
Replace gas control if magnet dropout millivolt reading is
over 100 millivolts.
Pilot Outage During Normal Operation
1. Check input by manifold pressure gauge or gas meter.
2. Check millivolt output when furnace is in operation. If
millivolt output decreases during furnace operation gas
control may be defective.
Main Gas Valve Does Not Open When Thermostat Is Turned
"On"
1. Check millivolt output of thermopile.
2. Thermostat wires may be broken.
3. Thermostat may be defective.
