I changed the entire board. It still is a no go. I dont really care. It served its time well. I paid for itself 10 fold.

bypass the solenoid and just use the regulator to turn your gas on. That's what I ended up doing :1 Solid gas coverage

This was a very common problem with the Mitech produced machines, I'll bet the board you replaced it with had the same problem.

Good luck anyway, just thought I'd try and help.
