I have this Jandy JXI400N heater. I bout this house, had a pool guy come out, did a startup inspection and everything checked out. During the startup, some of the pvc pipes were disconnected, probably do to winterization prep. Upon system startup we had some leaks and all the equipment got wet. Once everything was buttoned up, all systems, including the heater, worked. About an hour after the pool guy left, the heater stopped working. Now I get the “Fault Check IGN Steps”
Here’s what I did so far:
-took off heater panels and cleaned out/vacuum the inside
-replace and cleaned (wire brush, etc.) up anything that looked corroded.
-the air/gas mix fan turns on when I turn the unit on to heat.
-the unit clicks three times upon startup, 1 minute apart, just like the forums say.
-with all the external gas flow Valves open, the NG doesn’t flow for whatever reason.
So the questions I have are as such:
1-Does it make sense to check to see if the igniter is not functioning? This unit does not have a site glass. So can I take the igniter out and see if it starts to warmup? Can I attach a voltmeter and take some reading to confirm the igniter is working or not?
2-Is there a possibility that the gas control ON/OFF switch is faulty? If so, how do I check that?
Please help! I have attached the manual’s info for this fault. Thanks.
