Ideal Mexico CF80 Ignition Problems

by pdixon » Sat Jul 07, 2007 10:31 am

Our old Ideal Mexico is giving us a problem. After a spell of the pilot light going out, the themocouple was replaced and the jet nozzle cleaned out. It then worked but only for a day or two. There now does not seem to be a spark from the manual igniter switch despite repeated attempts. Is there an easy way of testing th e igniter and are there any parts which go wrong and can be replaced? Does anyone have any suggestions please before I call in the experts!
