Those reset buttons^^^^^^^^^^ are to reset the HIGH Temp T-stats nothing to do with 'lock out'
High temp t-stats trip at 170*F/manual reset
Left side 120V AC...electric element
Right side 12V DC...propane
'Lock out' happens when 3 attempt to light flame and prove it lit fail
'Lock out' will trigger the RED Fault Light on switch panel
Reset by turning ON/Off Switch OFF---wait 30 seconds then turn on
IF spark electrode is not 'firing' then it could be a 12V DC issue
The 12V DC set of t-stats are connected via a wire from top t-stat to bottom t-stat...they can burn into
Could be connection inside junction box on backside of WH Tank
Could be an issue with the circuit board on backside of WH Tank or mounted close by
So you need to test where you have DC and NOT have it
IF you do have 12V DC then.....
Keep trying to light water heater
LP System is only 0.4 psi....can take several attempts to get full flow to all appliances
