Hi, 260 what? Volt DC, AC? Or Ohm reading?




millivolts. It was 220 this morning. Tested the TP terminals. From what I
am gathering this means I need a new thermopile?


I would. Should be above 300 *at* the thermostat. Replacement is the
cheapest, quick fix/test option. Hopefully the gas valve is not on
its way out, either.
