3. Ignition Electrodes Check electrodes for carbon build-up, clean if
required. Check settings adjust if required.
Check for cracks in porcelain, if found, replace.
4. Transformer Check voltage between transformer leads at
terminal block to be sure transformer is live.
5. UV Detector Check for ignition interference.
6. Loose wire connection Check connections to all components.
7. Burner Control Check voltage between pilot terminal and neutral
and ignition terminal and neutral. Check must be
made before control locks out on safety. If no
power, replace control.
8. Oil nozzle clogging Check oil nozzle(s), clean or replace as necessary.
9. Faulty Oil Pump Check to see if oil is being pumped to the boiler
nozzle. Repair or replace as necessary.

valves or nozzle, caused by a new delivery of oil. If the oil tank level is allowed to fall near to the bottom of
the tank it is highly probable that sediment on the bottom of the tank will be disturbed and mixed in with the
new oil delivery, especially if the delivery rate is too fast.
