[VAC] Re: Hot Water Heater question

["James Greene" <drgreene@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Don, have you lighted the pilot and watched to see what happened? Could the
wind be blowing it out? Could the air shutter be set wrong so the pilot is
blown out when the gas valve opens? Could the contact on the thermocouple be
corroded? Has the thermocouple vibrated lose from road surface
irregularities or is it still snugged up in the gas control? Do all
thermocouples put out the same signal or is yours on the weak end of normal
output? Somebody probably knows what the output should be and how to tell if
yours is sufficient to operate the gas valve reliably.
