[Paloma gas water heater (model PH-5LFE)]

Thanks all of you for the help!

I will arm myself with some amp wire and a hammer so!

Any nasty surprises in removing the pilot jet for cleaning?

I am offline on the boat so need as much guidance prior as possible.

Heading down this weekend!

[Paloma gas water heater (model PH-5LFE)]

Hello all

The pilot light on my Paloma PH-5LFE won’t come on (unless I turn on the water with the big button fully pressed-but it all goes dead once I release).

It has been getting weaker for months and has now given up the ghost permanently.

There must be a block.

Any ideas how I could fix this?

I’m afraid to blow/use a brush in case I push a blockage further down.

Many thanks in advance for your help.
