Bucky for Model Number 36274221302 My igniter is not coming on, i replaced it, including my thermostat, i get power to the valve from the thermostast, and very little for the igniter, but dosen't glow ,also where does the igniter get power from ..do i need to replace the valve to get power..
Answer Bucky, You have it backwards, or something wired wrong. Power(120 VAC) is supplied to the igniter from the switch on the thermostat, The voltage goes into the igniter and comes out at a low voltage(3.2 to 3.6 VAC) and enters the terminal on the control valve and the voltage passing through the switch opens the valve and releases the gas. With a new thermostat and igniter, you will need to check the wires from the thermostat to the igniter, or you may have a bad igniter. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
