IGNITER
A. MODEL
RM2310,2410,2452,2453
When the button is pushed, a spring loaded striker creates a spark. If there is no resistance when pressing the button,
the piezo igniter is defective.
B. MODEL
RM2510,2610,2810,2552,2553
Check that the switch is in the gas mode and is completing the circuit. Next, verify proper voltage at the positive (+)
and ground (-) terminals of the igniter. The reading should be within one volt of incoming voltage at the terminal block.
HIGH VOLTAGE
Disconnect DC power at the terminal block. Remove high voltage cable from igniter. Reconnect DC power, the igniter
should produce a sparking sound.

AND 2810:
With the igniter producing spark, set the meter on 20 volts DC or lower scale,
connect meter leads to L and ground terminals on the igniter. The meter should read a pulsating voltage.
The pulsating voltage allows a lamp to illuminate on the front of the refrigerator to advise the customer spark has been
produced.
ELECTRODE
Do a visual inspection for cracks or breaks on the ceramic insulator. Also, verify the mounting bracket is attached
properly to the electrode. Check the spark gap. It must be set at three sixteenths
(3/16)
of an inch and the tip of
electrode above the slots in the burner.
