Set Appliance State:

Set Multimeter to DC Volts Set meter to measure DC Volts
Turn Hot Water Tap On
WARNING! - Mains voltage is expected during test follow
TOPs P4 live testing procedure
Mains Power On

Measurement:

Allow fan purge to complete (2 minutes).
Allow fan to run and ignition sequence to commence.
Measure the DC voltage between connector X12 and a suitable earth during the ignition sequence, as the burner ignites the voltage should drop from 4.3 vdc to 3.5 vdc or less.
Does the voltage behave as described above?
Note:
This test may need to be repeated several times to confirm the result, if the appliance locks out reset as necessary.
