I have a Heatsource 1600 gas heater in the living area on our horse lorry.
It fails to stay on after the purge and ignition stage. It lights but soon fails.
I've checked the gas solenoid and jet and out the vehicle it stays on fine.
I think it's this item in the flame path that's not working but it has no marks or ID on it at all.
Is it a thermocouple as it only has one connection? Maybe a thermopile?
I heated it with my wee burner and got only a few Mv ( 1.9) across connection and bracket.
With it out and a 12v frig across the gas solenoid the burner stays on indefinitely.
Does anyone know what it's actually called and if I'm testing it correctly?
