IPI electronic ignition control module.593-592 3 volt Input

We started noticing some issues with our Heat N Glo fireplace about a year ago. It would take longer to light or go out shortly after lighting periodically, we could usually turn off the switch at the wall and turn it back on to get it to relight. However, this year it would only light for about 2 minutes before going out and we would have to wait around an hour before it would relight for another 2 minutes. Reached out to our local dealer and they quoted $160 for the first half hour plus $25 for every 15 minutes after that plus parts.After researching I found a lot of other people who had the same issue and started with this module, very easy to change out, just be careful not to pull on the wires too hard as you remove them from the old module. With the new module the fireplace fired right up, it sounds better and there seems to be more of a spark when lighting. If you are having issues change this part out first before doing anything else!

This little box just saved me ~$300 to get a fireplace technician out just to inspect why my fireplace is not working. They are scheduling 8-12 weeks out too!We bought the house in 2020 and the heatilator fireplace stopped working this month (01.2023). When I turn on the switch, it wouldn't even click or spark. So I suspected power issues... I tested the outlet, checked the breaker box, and they were fine. I moved on next to the gas valve, it was turned on and the gas was flowing... then to this module... a bit deformed was an understatement (see pictures).It was super frustrating because the warranty expired and it the estimate was high just to get a tech out to look at the problem, excluding the actual repair and ordering parts. Also, for a fireplace part, you'd think all the parts should be able to withstand the heat and last longer, not deformed and stop working in 2 years.I decided to look online to replace the little ignitor module. Naturally, I look on Amazon and found the same exact replacement. After swapping out the wires and connectors, I flipped on the switch. I hear clicking and I see sparks... waited 15 seconds for the gas to flow and VROOM! The fireplace is working again! I danced and cheered as if I've just discovered fire for the first time!Base on this experience, if I need to replace the modulator again, I'll know what to do... for around $50... it was certainly worth a shot to try the repair. I really hope this wont melt either though... In the long term, I won't be considering heatilator fireplace as a replacement...

The media could not be loaded. After about 10 years my gas fireplace unit started failing. The pilot would light with no issues, however, the flame would only stay in for a few seconds then would ignite again, repeating this on/off cycle repeatedly.After reading other reviews, this appears to be a common issues addressed by replacing this module. It arrived with no issues. It was very easy to install by simply unplugging the old unit and plugging each wire to the corresponding slot in the new unit. The gas fireplace is working again, like new

About a year ago the pilot light on my fireplace wasn't working so I called a company to come out and fix it. (I will not name the company because they really don't deserve any sort of recognition). Anyway, they tried to tell me this part was $1800 and I looked at them as if they had kicked my dog (to put it mildly). I found this part on Amazon for $61 and installed it myself and bam working fireplace. I definitely recommend that if anybody has a similar issue to go on you tube or read the manual. These companies are just out here to take your hard earned cash when you can go simply go online and do it yourself but take extreme measures when doing so. I'm not an electrician by any means. Just someone who will not be taken advantage of.

Item worked well, but the module ended up not being my problem . My fire place would turn off after 5 min then time decreased to nothing, no spark , no noise.According to my troubleshooting guide the possible causes for no spark, no noise is1. No power to module2.loose wire connecting to the module, broken melted wire in wiring harness, or pilot wire (orange)3. Improper wall switching4. Module not properly grounded.5. bad moduleMake sure the wall outlet that feeds the module has 120v with multi meter . If that’s good then test the wall adapter (black plug) voltage . On my heat n glo SL-7 they are the two black wires that connect to the module. That should read around 2.8. - 3 volts. I tried using my tic tester to check to see if the wall adapter was energized and it didn’t register because it’s only 3 volts running through the cord to power module. Then check and make sure the ground wire from the gas valve is tightly bonded (screwed) to the metal frame. Mine was screwed directly above gas control valve. It’s always a good idea to scrape the paint off when grounding anything, whoever installed my fireplace didn’t do that. If that’s all good check the wall switch, that was my problem, I got no spark , no noise , nothing. Every thing I could find was telling me this module was probably the problem. I checked continuity in all the wires in the harness as well as the pilot wire, made sure to test black wire in harness to frame of fireplace and that had continuity. One YouTube video I watched the guy showed how to test the module while it was powered on . It’s only 3 volts feeding the module (nothing that you can feel) so he takes the orange wire off the module terminal (marked with i ) and holds the module close to metal frame and it’s supposed to spark, if it doesn’t he says it’s probably a bad module. Mine didn’t spark so I bought a new module. But because it was a bad switch from the low volt side it still failed to spark, I replaced the switch now it works great.I have two switches that feed my fireplace. No remote. One switch is feeding the 120 volt outlet in my fireplace that the transformer (wall adapter) is plugged into. This brings all the power to the module/fireplace (unless you have battery back up which is for power outages) The other is just a single pole switch (regular light switch) that goes directly to the wiring harness that then plugs into the module. That was my problem, switch went bad, in a house that’s only two years old....
