Protect

Low flame-sense µA

Flame is present but the micro-amp signal is below the IFC threshold.

9 plates — walk the one on the cabinet

First check

1 Measure µA while it is running

Do not clean first and guess. Series-µA the rod on Amana AMVC96 during a call. Falling µA is oxide, ground, or a dying flame. A hard drop is often the pressure switch or limit opening, not the rod. Clean rod with a non-scratch pad — not sandpaper.

Expect: Flame rod: µA per this IFC sticker, not the AR9T96 card. Rising while running is the goal.

The rest of the walkthrough is Diagnose.
