• Red and black wires from battery pack are connected to red and black wires on solenoid/motor. Black wire
should be on the outside and red wire should be on the inside on the terminal block. (Fig. 3)
• Battery pack is in the proper position.
o AFVK-SP-H/L should be in the latching solenoid
position
o AFVK-SP-MH/L should be in the DC motor drive
position.
Check Solenoid/Motor with a 9 volt battery
• Disconnect red and black wires from the solenoid/motor and
battery pack where they connect.
• Place one wire, from the solenoid/motor drive, on the (+)
terminal and one on the (–) terminal of the 9 volt battery. This
should adjust your flame either HI or LO.
• Reverse the wires and it should adjust the flame in the opposite direction. If this fails, the solenoid/motor
drive should be replaced.
Flame Height Seems HI/LO
IMPORTANT: Valve Kits are shipped Natural gas (NG) from
Skytech. If using LP gas, make sure that you have followed the LP
gas conversion procedure to convert from Natural (NG) to LP, before
checking the following:
Check
• Gas valve regulator is selected to proper gas being used.
Remove regulator cap located on the front of the valve.
Check to see if stem indicates proper gas type. If not, push
stem in and turn to proper gas type; replace cap. (See Fig. 4
thru 7)
• Use proper orifice for the correct type of gas being used. (Using a LP orifice while using NG gas
will cause low flame height; and using a NG orifice on LP will cause high flame and sooting).
• Low gas line pressure and blockage in the lines will affect the flame height. Contact a qualified gas
technician.
• Contact gas log manufacturer for proper burner specifications.
Module Does Not Have An Audible Beep When Using Transmitter
Check
• Battery voltage should be a minimum of 5.3 volts DC in the
battery pack and a minimum of 9.0 volts DC in the transmitter.
• Red indicator light on transmitter illuminates when buttons are
pressed.
• 4-pin connector from module to battery pack is secure.
• Remote/Off switch on module is in the “Remote” position.
• Broken or frayed wires in and around box or burner assembly.
• To learn transmitter to module
o Press and immediately release the “Learn” button, on the module, you should hear an audible beep.
o If you do not hear an audible beep, clear memory of the module. If you hear an audible beep,
continue.
