jus want to check i've got this right, ya saying ya not getting a spark to light the pilot and ya don't know how to fix it?

 

[tonygas78]

99% sure it will be the spark generator, but dont want to order the part ( if available) unless i'm sure, just wanted an experienced gas engineers advice/thoughts first of all, what do you think!

 

[gas_man_gaz]

think ya should be thinking why the pilot went out in the 1st place, how long ya been qualified? id join the combustion chamber asap

thats a bit rich. You can't work out why you can't get a spark on a piezo ignitor ffs

 

[Boilerman2]

Have you got a MATCH!

Mickey it might be the original spacesaver with one of those really complicated mains electricity repetitive spark ignition systems
