Nah unfortunately this unit worked great until last year and this clicking problem has gotten worse - almost so bad it cant get up to temp. There are directions on youtube to take my same gas valve control board out and replace the corroded contacts with wires...

I just updated this post if anyone is typing a reply....the gas valve is definitely doing the clicking.

Well....my teledyne series 2 will fire up and burn well for about 3-6 minutes. After that, it sounds like something is reseting and it starts to flutter/click fast. I basically have to turn the heater off and then turn it back on. It only takes another couple minutes for the issue to start...

My unit will not fire right now at all. Usually, in accordance with the stated directions, I can turn off all power, reset the manual gas valve from on to off and back, turn back on the power, switch the temp control assembly from off to spa, adjust temperature control to max, turn on the...

I did not replace the seals or o-rings - I think they are OK - I did put some of that silicon lube on them to keep them in good shape. I looked really closely and it looks like the leak is coming out on the motor shaft. I do not believe that it is coming from the plastic casing. Perhaps I...

I replaced an old 48 frame 1hp pump with an identical new pump. I took the old wet end and put it on the new motor. There is now a very slight leak coming from the wet end. I even put permatex no. 2 around the long rubber gasket to ensure the whole seal was good - a thick bead. The drip...

The only reason I don't think it is the ignition control is because before I took apart the unit, almost everything was working...the clicking was happening and it lit the burner, which fired for about 10 seconds before it shut off completely (which was my original problem - I believe due to the...

1) OK, so I took apart my 325btu Teledyne heater to clean the debris off of the copper heater fins - the high limit was being triggered so it was so dirty. I put it back together but I wasn't getting a spark (ya know, the click, click, click). So now I am trying to test where the gap is. I...

OK - I called the old owner and it turns out that my original problem was trash and ash that had coated the "fins" of the copper water tubes and triggered the first high limit for 135 degrees. During the process of taking the heater apart, I broke the ring clamp on the wire of the spark...

I am reconsidering the fact that it could be the high limit switch. The heater does not run for long enough to trigger the high limit (only about 10-15 seconds before it switches off). Plus the high limit is on the outflow, so i doubt that it gets that hot, that quickly. Where is the flamer...

I have a Teledyne Series 2 325btu heater that has worked well for 2 years (since I bought my house). This year, the automatic elec pilot ignition fires and lights the burners. It roars to life for about 10 seconds and then shuts off. It tries this again automatically and then just quits...
