Is the 12V DC system ON....
Blown fuse
Battery disconnect off
OR converter not working?


First thing is to check that water heater is getting 12V DC power to module.
Power comes from ON/OFF switch then thru 'thermal cut out' (one shot fuse) then to/thru t-stat then to module (brown wires).
Power than comes out of module to ECO (hi temp t-stat) then to gas valve (red wire)
