Pilot not sparking Diedrich IR7

[ChrystiDi]

My IR7 pilot is not sparking. I have power to the roaster; blower, drum and agitator all turn on, but when I hit the gas, my pilot is not sparking at all. Any ideas? Thermocouple? Short?

check the fuse.there is also a "spark box" that creates the spark. Dont know where yours is located or what it looks like. Mine is grey and about two inches wide, three inches long and 1.5 inches tall. Best bet is call Deidrich directly. they may have someone available to walk you through troubleshooting.

Usually an air problem. Check to make sure all chaff doors are closed or any other place where there can be an air leak.
The spark is set to not light when there is any air issues. Chaff, etc. Then call Diedrich they will give advice.
