❤ nice when new but a pain after some use. Lazy pilot on the thermal pile is where I’m gonna lay my money.. I have also ran into Broken wire, high resistance in a wire . They Are a serious pain in the booty to work on an I hate them. Usually when I got to work on one, it’s three deep breath, and three hail Mary’s before I even start.😂😂😂😂

Majestic got bought out a few years ago, and they are still in business. I installed three of their fireplaces last week. Double check that the gas conversion was done properly. You have to change the diaphragm in the gas valve and both orifices. Good luck.

I've been working on gas fireplaces for over 30 years. The gas conversion was not done properly the pilot flame is way too high.

I've come across in the past that the wall switch can oxidize a tiny bit because of the milivoltage isn't enough to keep the corrosion off the contacts.

Bypassed the switch. Same result.

The meter you showed does millivolts both AC and DC. Set it to the DC 2000m range to start.

Umm... What do you think the "m" stands for after the numbers? It's a Fieldpiece manual ranging stick meter. It does millivolts.@@MikeyPipesOrlando

The t-pile needs to go to th tp- and tp. So the top and middle screw. The wire from the wall switch goes on the top and bottom male spade. Also it looks like the orifice in the pilot was never changed. Its an allen from the top under the pilot hood. The pilot hood is only held on with a small c clip.

If you’re not testing, you’re guessing. Drive to the parts house and pick up the proper meter, come back and diagnose it properly (not really sure why you wouldn’t have a multi meter with millivolts if you’re dealing with thermocouples and water heaters ) come on Mikey Pipes , you got to straighten these Florida guys out , Daniel probably had the proper meter the first day you hired him .

No full impingement of the Pilot Generator...only a partial flame touching the PG...when the logs light the Pilot flame will be sucked away causing the Pilot Generator to cool down and drop out ...

I don't like that pilot. Too lazy. It should be a nice blue flame. It could heat up the pilot generator to produce enough mV to keep the pilot lit, not enough to open the valve. It could either be a dirty orifice or the wrong orifice as it was just converted to NG. A NG orifice is larger than one for LP. Additionally, the LP gas turning molasses like sounds sketchy. Sure, the mercaptan could break down from the LP over time, that happens in the tank from the boiling (vaporizing) of the liquid propane. If it's vaporizing in the gas lines, theres a bigger problem at hand. Furthermore, if this was to happen (gas turning thick), propane regulators would have to be changed on a consistent basis, along with gas valves on water heaters, dryers, rangers, etc.
