Ive never heard of an ignitor on this model getting 92 VAC. It should be 120 volt.
If the ignitor is getting voltage when it is supposed to , but its not glowing like normal, replace ignitor. And also find out whats up with your electrical.

I have a jandy lite 2 pool heater, fl 2 error appears even though flow seems ok burner wont fire. should the pressure switch be replaced.

FL2 means igniton failure that means the heater didnt lite make sure gas is on, is the ignitor glowing if not check the fuse on the red wires going to the ignitor sometimes the syphon loop gets plugged that will give you a flow issue

Top oven does not work...

measure the resistance on the valve if you have continuity its good if not replace it

Ignitor isnt working

The oven ignitor should have a resistance reading of about 3.2 to 3.6 ohms. If the readings are out of this specification or show open replace the ignitor. measure the resistance of the oven valve. The gas valve should have about 1.5 ohms of resistance. If the gas valve is OK, the control board is suspect. The ignitor needs 120vac to work.

What is my current rate

Which current are you referring to ??......



If you think of an electrical device as a piece of plumbing, voltage is the amount of water that you send down into the pipe, resistance is the pipe's relative width or narrowness, and current is the speed with which the water flows.
Power measures the water's relative difficulty or ease making its way through the pipe.
You relate all these values to one another using a common set of physics equations known as Ohm's law.
If you need to calculate electricity's current flow, you'll need to have at least two of the three values -- voltage, resistance or power -- listed above.

Calculate current flow using voltage and resistance.
According to Ohm's law, you can express electricity's current in amps as a ratio of its voltage in volts to the resistance of the device it's flowing through in ohms -- I = E/R, respectively.
For example, if you want to know the current flow of 220 V of electricity as it flows through a laptop computer with 80 ohms of resistance, you would simply plug these values into the equation as follows: I = 220/80 = 2.75 amps.
Calculate current flow using power and resistance.
Ohm's law also states that electrical current, "I," is equal to the square root of the power dissipated as it travels through the device divided by that device's resistance.
If a light bulb dissipates 80 watts of power and has a resistance of 55 ohms, you can calculate the electricity's current as follows: I = sqrt(80/55) = sqrt(1.4545) = 1.20 amps.

Calculate current flow using power and voltage.
If you have a space heater which dissipates 420 watts of power when it takes in 120 V of electricity, Ohm's law states you can calculate this electricity's current using the equation "I = P/E." For this example, compute current like so: I =420/120 = 3.5 amps.

How can I resolve kyocera fs 1016mfp error 6000? thanks

Broken heater lamp error
The temperature won't rise by 1°C/33.8
°F during warming up and the heater is
turned on for 5 seconds.
The temperature won't rise by 1°C/33.8
°F during printing and the heater is
turned on for 5 seconds with the duty
cycle more than 60%.

Causes:
- Defective fuser thermistor.
- Broken thermal cutout or heater lamp.
- Defective engine/high voltage PWB.


Follow the flow chart:

Turn power switch off, and
remove power cord.

Detach YC7 connector on
the engine/high voltage
PWB.

Measure resistance
between pins 1 and 2 of
the detached connector.

Open

Yes ---> Replace the fuser thermistor.
NO ----> Detach YC1 connector on the power source PWB.

Oven ingniter lights , smell gas but oven doesnt turn on

Hello- Ignitors may 'light' yet not reach proper resistance and temperature, causing improper gas flow past valve. If resistance is below 4 ohms, ignitor is bad. Part is 40-75$ at local app. parts store. Fairly easy to replace. Hope this helps. -Thanks- ED

Dependable ninety two blower comes on no igniter glow gas flows

if you dont see the glow of the ignitor it is probably bad . you can check with a meter that has an ohms scale, unplug and test ignitor side OL would be a bad ignitor 45-110ohms ok.

No Heat on a whirlpool dryer. 14 years old.drum turns,timer moves,getting gas to valve,tapped solenoids-no change.burner not lighting. thanks for any info

if ignitor not coming on could be flame sensor mounted on side of burner housing or ignitor ..if ignitor glowing but burner no lighting replace both solenoids bad connections interally on solenoids..also if ignitor not glowing possible small white thermal fuse open.. sensor and fuse can be jumped across to confirm ..

Half way throu my dishwashers cycle it fuses & turns everything in house off

this happens due to the high electric current requirement of the dishwasher and it is not receiving that required current so it try to start but due to lack of required power it shuts off the current in whole house.
get the electric curren line checked out in your house.

and to check the current in your dishwasher check out this instructions
You will most commonly measure two electrical parameters when you're troubleshooting your appliance: resistance (measured on units called "ohms") and voltage. Typically, both of these measurements are made on a single meter called a multi-meter, which you can set to measure either ohms or voltage.
This shows how to measure resistance. Resistance ( or continuity ) is measured in units called "ohms." You'll commonly want to know the resistance of things like bake elements and solenoid coils. For example, a good bake element typically has a resistance of about 30 ohms. If your oven's not baking and you measure the resistance of the bake element and the meter doesn't move, then you know you have a bad element. A simple ohm measurement can save a lot of money and a possible headache :)

Amp meter: Here's a clamp-on amp meter (or amp meter) being used to measure current flow through a wire. This is a common test for determining whether or not a gas oven igniter is good or bad--only way to really know is by measuring its current draw and comparing to rated draw. You'll also want to measure current/amp draw in cases where you have an electric motor that runs for a few minutes then shuts off on it's built in safety to see if the problem is with the motor drawing excessive current.
Volt meter: This picture shows how to measure voltage. A voltage measurement at the outlet should the first thing you do whenever you have an appliance that is completely inoperative...a simple power test is required if your electric dryer is running with no heat to make sure you have both powers at the dryer

thanks.

JGBP79 Bake Ignitor not glowing, even after replacing

My next step would be to replace the two gas coils. They are located on top the gas valve. Disconnect the elect. leads, pull upward on coils. Replace w/newones. The difference is a primary and secondary, one has two elect. prongs and one has three. Note which one goes where when you remove them and install new ones in the opposite. These tell the gas valves when to activate and allow gas to flow to your igniter. When they malfunction, and they do, you wont have gas flowing.
