How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Work on gas or oil valves must be done by qualified personnel. Do not attempt to open or adjust valves yourself.

  • Listen for valve click: During ignition, you should hear a click from the gas valve or oil solenoid. Absence of this may indicate a coil or control fault.
  • Check connectors: With power isolated, ensure the valve coil plugs are firmly connected and not corroded.
  • Visual inspection: Look for signs of overheating or burning on the valve body or wiring.
  • Professional testing: A heating engineer should measure coil resistance, verify voltage at the valve during ignition, and replace the gas valve or oil solenoid coil as required.
