There could be several reasons why the pilot light on your gas fireplace won't stay lit. It could be due to a dirty or faulty thermocouple, a clogged pilot orifice, insufficient gas flow, or a problem with the gas valve. It is recommended to have a professional technician inspect and repair the issue to ensure safe operation of your fireplace.

Polama pilot light wont stay light why?

If the pilot light on your Polama appliance won't stay lit, it could be due to a few common issues. Check for a dirty or clogged pilot orifice, which can restrict gas flow. Additionally, a faulty thermocouple may not be detecting the heat from the flame, causing the gas supply to shut off. Lastly, ensure that the gas supply is on and there are no leaks in the line.


Hot water heater pilot light works heater wont light?

Have you turned the control from Pilot to On? Have you increased the temperature setting?


Your hot water heaters pilot light is on but the heater wont come on?

The thermocouple is bad. The thermocouple is the small metal tube that sits in the pilot light flame and runs to the control valve. The thermocouple generates a very small electrical current that keeps the gas valve open. They go bad regularly. **** I would have to say to check to make sure the valve is not in the "Pilot" position. If it is then turn it to the "On' position. If it still isn't working then you may have a bad Gas Control Valve. If the thermocouple was bad the pilot light would not stay lit. If the pilot light stay lit, it is doing what it is supossed to do.

Why wont your electronic ignition water heater stay lit for more than a few seconds?

Electronic ignition refering to it having a sparker to light the pilot light? That just lights the pilot, there is still a thermocouple that controls the gas valve. The thermocouple is the small tube that sits in the pilot flame and runs to the control valve. To replace, you will need to remove the cover plate, gas line, thermocouple, and sparker wire as a unit and replace the thermocouple once you have it out and them re-install the unit.


Gas fireplace wont stay on I have a FMI model GL-6100 gas fireplace when I turn it on after 2 or 3 min it shut down Evan the pilot lite goes out I hear a pop sound that seem to come gas value?

Not an expert, but a homeowner. MOST gas fireplaces (and other appliances) have a flame sensor- frequently in the form of a thermocouple. Intended to prevent gas from flowing when there is no flame present. If the thermocouple is bad, it will shut off the gas flow even when a flame IS present. It may look like a small rod that is in the flame of the pilot light. I would REALLY hand this of to a professional gas repairman. The cost of having this done right is FAR less than the cost of doing it wrong.
