In LA we are having many windy days. This week, the Hallway heater pilot turned of two days in a row during lots of wind. Heater and house is 50 years old.
I scarped the soot off the thermocouple but did not help. Thermocouple is in the pilot flame. Heater rood vent has a flue cap and is 12 inches above roof.
Can I test thermocouple with a DVM. What voltage when heated?
Trouble shooting hints are needed.
Thanks, Dave_s
