Question

I have a Trumatic S3002 heater with auto igniter, on Saturday the igniter stopped (no clicking noise), replacing the battery did not make any difference. I tried it many times Saturday and Sunday but without success, this morning I tried again and it worked but with quite a limp sounding click. Which part usually fails ? Thanks

Answer

First try another battery, the one that you have fitted may be faulty - best to use a duracell or equivalent. If the problem persists then there is probably a fault with the igniter itself or these may be some debris or condensation on the gas burner preventing the igniter's path to earth which creates the spark.
