    You’ve got to be kidding me! I worked cleaning my H & G all morning and it won’t work. I watch this and wack the side gently with a screw driver like this expert said and it came on immediately! 😳 I’ve always known that when you have a hammer, everything’s a nail. Thanks for the fix! Simply incredible. 👍

    I can only imagine the service tech send me out of the room first and then give the valve a good tap . He’ll then ask me to come back in and hand me the bill for $250 dollars. 😂😂

      I always wait until the customer is not looking when I tap the valve. I then clean the glass and dust everything to kill time. My bill is only $159. Maybe I should raise my prices 😂🤣

    The pilot would light but the burner would not ignite. The fireplace has an electronic ignition system with NO standing pilot flame. The control module and valve are manufactured by Dexen.

    Currently have a unit with a stand alone pilot/remote. Valve lights, but when burner lights it will go out within a few seconds. Will automatically relight then go out.
    Was staying on for a bit. Then same issues. Thermocouple??

    • @flueflame5438
      @flueflame5438  2 роки тому +1

      If your system has a pilot flame that stays on all the time, then your problem is probably the thermopile. The thermocouple only controls the pilot flame. If your pilot flame is staying on, the problem is not the thermocouple. I would start with cleaning out the pilot orifice and see if the problem goes away.

    My Heat & Glo SL-750 pilot would not light. My inlet pressure is about 8iwc. I get no pressure on the outlet port. I also replaced the OEM Dexen module and I’m only getting 200mV at the green wire. The pilot barely lights and the spark is staying on even after getting a small flame. I’ve tried tapping many times but it hasn’t helped. Do you think I have multiple issues here?

    • @flueflame5438
      @flueflame5438  6 місяців тому +1

      200mv is not enough to open the pilot valve. In case this is a false reading, I would take the pilot assembly out and clean out the pilot orifice.

      @@flueflame5438 ok thank you. I’ll check that. I just connected the original Dexen module and same thing… 3vac input and 200mV at the green wire with my black lead on the valve chassis. Odd that both old and new Dexen modules have the same reading at the green wire. Maybe a bad chassis ground?

    • @flueflame5438
      @flueflame5438  2 роки тому

      @@wfeierday The clicking or ticking sound is the spark igniter attempting to light the pilot. You may need to remove the glass and check the pilot assembly for any obstruction. Having the glass off will give you the opportunity to clear away any lava rock or glowing embers that may be preventing the spark from reaching the gas coming out of the pilot. You may also be able to hear a faint hissing sound if gas is coming out of the pilot when the wall switch is turned on. If you hear hissing and see spark at the pilot, the pilot will soon light after the air gets pushed out of the line and gas reaches the pilot.

    • @flueflame5438

      When you flip the wall switch, is there a spark at the pilot? When you remove the glass and flip the switch, do you here the gas hissing? If these two things are occurring, the pilot will eventually light. It may take several tries, but it will eventually light the pilot.
