262. Check the burner to see if it is dirty or clogged. The burnermay be cleaned with soap and hot water (Figure 24).BURNER(BOTTOM VIEW)SCREWSPILOT ASSEMBLY(BOTTOM VIEW)FIGURE 24.Replacing the Thermocouple1. Remove the manifold/burner assembly as directedpreviously.2. Lift the retainer clip straight up from the back of the twopiece wire connector (using a flat-blade screwdriver),then remove the two piece wire connector from themanifold door (Figure 25.)3. Remove the burner, see Removing the Burner from theManifold/Burner Assembly.4. Pull the thermocouple from the pilot assembly (Figure 26).IMPORTANT: Be careful not to bend or alter the position ofthe pilot assembly components.5. Insert the thermocouple tip into the holes provided inthe pilot bracket until it clicks into place. NOTE: Thebase of the thermocouple must be flush with the baseof the pilot bracket.6. Position the new thermocouple through the bottomopening of the two piece wire connector (Figure 28).Be sure igniter wire is positioned through the middleopening of the two piece wire connector.7. Re-attach the burner. Note the orientation of the buner(Figure 24.)8.

Take off the burner by removing the two (2) screwslocated underneath the burner. See Figure 24.4. Remove and keep the screw securing the pilotassembly to the pilot bracket. (Figure 27)5. Remove and keep the old pilot/pilot tube assembly.6. Using the old pilot/pilot tube assembly as a guide, bendthe new pilot tube and new thermocouple to match theold ones. NOTE: Make only the bends closest to thepilot before going to the next step.
