How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Gas and ignition components must be serviced by a Gas Safe engineer.

Engineer actions:

  • Check the ignition electrode and lead for damage and secure connections; replace if necessary.
  • Verify that the gas valve receives an opening signal from the PCB during ignition.
  • Measure gas pressures and ensure supply is adequate.
  • If gas valve and ignition components are sound, test and replace the main PCB if it fails to complete the ignition sequence.
