Water Heater pilot won't light
#2
Push and hold pilot for 1-2 seconds, THEN push the igniter and keep holding PILOT. If no blue flame, let go of PILOT. Wait 1 minute, then try again. DO NOT keep PILOT held down too long.. the chamber will fill with gas and you will get a nice little kaboom.

If you DO get a blue flame, hold the PILOT Down for a count of 10 before letting go. If the blue flame goes out, you may need to open the combustion chamber and clean off the thermostat with a toothbrush or steel wool.
