Low millivolt signal to lower circuit board due to dirty thermocouple or bad thermocouple
Lower circuit board
Low gas pressure or dirty orifice
Flue baffle out of position
Flue tube needs cleaning
Do a good cleaning....
orifice (remove/soak in alcohol)
Remove vent cap/pull baffle/clean tube with brush (cover burner)
Clean up electrode with some emery cloth
The other items you would need manometer, voltmeter.......know how to use them and the test parameters
