Hello All,
Today I tied the PVC back into the heater in hopes of the heater would work. The heater is a Pentair MiniMax 250M Minivolt Heater. Well as I figured it wouldn't be as easy as turning on a switch because it does not want to kick on. I took the front panel off and turned the gas valve to Pilot and hit the ignition, and the pilot stays lit. Then after I have the water running through it and I turn the switch to Pool and have the temp knob to hot. The burners don't come on...?
Some questions:
1. As I am looking through the manual it says there should be a lit diagnostic board showing power, service needed, ect. Well I don't see anything lit up on the front.
2. Does this heater get its electricity from the water running through it? Because I don't see any signs of electric running to it.
3. Any test I can perform before having to call a service company in hopes of being able to do it myself.
Here are some pictures
