 Went back to dad's but forgot my DMM. Decided to do a bit more testing just to confirm the situation. So I removed and cleaned the Pilot Electrode Sparker and put it all back. In 10 tries of unplug/replug the 110 supply and turning it on at the thermostat I didn't see a single spark. Just a click sound from the Ignition Module. Come to think of it, most times last night was the same way - just a couple of spark/pilot flame then nothing.

I see 3 parts in play here - the Ignition Module, the Pilot Safety Switch and the Pilot Electrode Sparker. How do I determine which is faulty?

Is there a way I can test the Ignition Module? The Sparker?

Should I go ahead and do the aforesuggested 24VAC test at the 3-wire pilot switch molex connector?
