  If the ODS/pilot light of your ReddyHeater lights, but the flame goes out when you release the control knob, here’s what you can do: 1. Make sure you are pressing the control knob fully. 2. After the ODS/pilot lights, keep the control knob pressed in for 30 seconds. 3. Ensure the equipment shutoff valve is fully open. 4. Hand tighten the thermocouple connection at the control valve until it is snug, then tighten it an additional 1/4 turn. 5. If the pilot flame isn't touching the thermocouple, contact your local gas company or clean/replace the ODS/pilot assembly. 6. Replace the thermocouple if it is damaged. 7. Replace the control valve if it is damaged.
