The Bosch 1600H worked fine for 3 plus years. Now there is no spark at the pilot. I did the three year maintenance, rebuilding the water valve and cleaning the pilot assembly. I reseated all the electric conections/plugs. I followed the troubleshooting as far as finding good voltage from the hydro generator. I stopped where the troubleshooting suggested replacing the control box. Any better ideas?

I fixed it thanks to a brilliant post on Fixya by ZAWY on 2011Sep11. It was the microswitch. Cost = $0.

A safety switch I would guess.

Much cheaper than the Shotgun method.


Enjoy.
