I'm scratching my head..I dropped it out cleaned it up (real dirty) tested it before replacing it fired up, put back in won't fire.:crying:
 
What kind of machine do ya have, Lou?


Either Fuel, Air, or Fire... Right?

I found this video pretty helpful!

Ok, does this raise any flags to anyone out there? Supply line (off) and kick the unit on the burner kicks on....turn unit off. Supply line (on) turn unit on ....no burner. Prior to this situation I had taken the unlaoder apart and had to replace a broken spring at the micro switch. Could this be at the genesis of my current burner issue?
 
It is Lou, and he is disturbed... He called me, and I think I was able to get it worked out for him. And of course, Russ is right.
 
Yea had switch up wiring...funny thing I have no memory of tampering with those wires prior. Thanks for the help Scott.


Now I have a small issue of water getting into the micro switch from the unloader. :slap:
 
No lou, it is probably not worth it to go to Home Depot and buy an oring. Just saying...
 
It operates as it should till I bolt the burner back in place? What gives?
