Included
in #118
Takagi Part #
EKH6T (LP model)
Checkpoint
Function
Opens and closes the gas pathways of the water heater (main and solenoid
Modulates the gas flow from the gas inlet (proportional gas valve)
Failure events
1. Gas leak from the valves.
2. Unable to open/close (main and solenoid gas valves)
3. Unable to modulate the gas flow (proportional gas valve)
Effects on the water
heater if valves fails
1. Gas leak from the unit.
2. Excess carbon monoxide emissions. / No flames.
3. Lack of water temperature control.
Error codes when the
111 121 510 701 711
Diagnostic
1. Visual inspection: connection / breakage of wires.
2. Listen for "clunk" sounds from the gas valves opening right after fan motor
initiates.
3. Check voltages and resistance of coils; proper range of values shown
below.
