How can I test a thermocouple on a water heater to ensure it is functioning properly?

To test a thermocouple on a water heater, you can use a multimeter to measure the voltage output. Disconnect the thermocouple from the control unit and place the multimeter probes on the thermocouple terminals. A functioning thermocouple should produce a voltage reading within the expected range. If the reading is outside this range, the thermocouple may need to be replaced.
