The Robertshaw 780-001 (nonlockout), 780-002 (lockout) and
780-003 (lockout with prepurge) Universal Replacement Module
Uni-Kit ® is designed to replace the Johnson Controls Spark Ignition
System Modules listed on pages 5 and 6. The 780-002 kit must be
used whenever a Johnson Controls Y79 Series lockout module is
present on the system being serviced.
The 780-001 and 780-002 Uni-Kit replaces only the existing
control module, while utilizing the existing Johnson gas valve,
pilot sensor and ignitor. The Uni-Kit includes a special mounting
bracket for mounting the new module onto the existing gas
valve. A special wiring adaptor, (included with the Uni-Kit) is used
whenever the existing system includes a Johnson Controls M15/
Y15 Series Vent Damper.

ACCESSORY TERM E3 = Not used
MV/PV = Common return for MV and PV (grounded)
TR = Transformer common (grounded)
GND. = Ground
IGNITOR = Spark electrode lead wire
