Checking Components And Wiring

Check the cable between central electronic module (CEM) terminal #8 and the signal cable for the flame sensor. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage. Check for an open-circuit.

HINT: It is difficult to differentiate between the ground lead for the flame sensor and the signal cable. Take readings on one cable at a time to check for a plausible value on either of them. 

Replace the flame sensor if no fault is found in the cable.

Remedy as necessary.
