My Gas Engineer is a star. After many tries to find out why it wouldn't light he rang Flavel and was told how to light it manually. Bit of a Faff - but it does work.
Here goes !......
Lift the Facsia off and set aside. Lift the cover of the ignition mechanism, which is on the lefthand side - and set this aside.
NOW - turn the wheel fully towards you (clockwise) - then push a screwdriver into the hole in the wheel ( this opens the gas valve) and keep it pressed in with your left hand - AT THE SAME TIME - light the pilot light with a match or lighter.
When lit - HOLD IN THE SCREWDRIVER AND HOLD FOR ABOUT 20 SECONDS ( TO WARM THE COIL)
then remove the screwdriver ( or pencil will do ) and the light stays in.
NOW - remember to turn the wheel back again ( anticlockwise) before assembling
the covers.
This does work - I have done it many times. - Although it is extremely annoying
with a £800 fire.
