Try disconnecting the connector from the control board and reconnecting to insure good connection. Measure for 12 vdc or better at the gas valve, when the unit is trying to ignite. If you have voltage, you could tap on the valve the next time the unit is sparking across the electrode to burner. Let us know what you find.
