Set Appliance State:

Isolate Mains Power to appliance as per TOPs P4
Set Multimeter to Resistance Set meter to measure resistance
Remove fan and burner assembly

Measurement:

Inspect the flame detection electrode for any signs of warping, build-up of debris or damage.
Measure the gap between the electrode and the burner.
It should be approximately 13mm.
Inspect the lead for good overall condition and carry out a resistance test between the tip of the electrode and the spade connector.
Resistance should be short circuit (zero resistance).
Notes:
Electrode shown removed for illustration only.
On refitting ensure all seals are inspected
and replaced if worn or damaged.
