Thanks! Here's a few bucks to say thanks!
Found out this morning that our water heater wasn’t working when Momma took a shower; she was t happy. Tried several times to relight pilot light and nothing. Your video saved me a call to a plumber 🤑🤑🤑. Reset button worked! Also turned it down from “ A” to “Hot” as recommended in another video which hopefully will prevent it from kicking off again. Many thanks! 🙏🏻 😊
157 plumbers downvoted this video because it works. Thanks
You just saved me a bunch of time, money and headaches with this short video. I didn't even know that button was there! Thx for passing along the knowledge.
After all the videos I watched and Google searches and fail after fail, I was just getting ready to go buy a new water heater and ran across this, no one had mentioned that button, I thought it was too easy a fix but thought why not, fired right up after hitting that little ole button, thank you for saving me several hundred bucks!
I was trying to figure out our water heater ready to buy another thermostat. After watching your video I fixed the problem. You saved us another day of showering with a bucket. Thank you!!!
This is the first Whirlpool blinking light "solution" that actually worked. I spent an entire DAY re-lighting my pilot light only to have it default to 4 blinks every 3 seconds. After watching YOUR videos I kept the water set on "HOT." And the problem is now SOLVED!!!! I can't thank you enough!!!!!! You saved my family of more cold showers.
THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!
I just want to tell you thank you brother you actually saved my parents because they had not had water in 2 days and I watched your video went over there and pushed that button in the middle and their water heater came back alive I appreciate you so much I'm definitely going to subscribe
God Bless you for this video man. My boiler went out and I was able to restart it thanks to this video. My family thinks I'm a hero. :)
Thank you so much. This is the only video that even mentioned that reset button and it solved the whole button.
Melissa Payne My plumber (real honest guy) showed me the little button to push to reset. I thought the darn thing was done since it would not light. It cost me his service fee only. Still have the heater. It goes out from time to time and I can just do as he showed me. First plumber said I needed a new hot water heater (before he even looked at it 🤔 ). He even yelled at me and my husband got pretty upset about that. The guy looked like a dirt bag. I told him I wasn’t going to pay him and I told him he was dishonest. I even called his boss. Some are dishonest, some lazy, and some are just awesome and trustworthy. This is all too common with people ripping you off. I do believe some techs think they can convince us (women especially) their decisions are set in stone.
Proud wife moment here! My husband was worrying about the water heater tonight, and he told me what wasn’t working. Sure enough, I found this video and showed it to him. INSTANT FIX. I have no knowledge of water heaters, but the look on his face was EVERYTHING 😂
Thank you a million for saving us some money!
You’re welcome! Clean that filter grate once or twice a year will help tremendously too!
That thermocouple statement solved my problem. Thanks bro!
I had scheduled a plumber to come out tomorrow because I couldn’t get the status light to come on. Saw your video. Hit the reset button and now the status light blinking again. Thank you for sharing this fix.
You’re welcome! Thanks for the kind comment.
Yes, the reset button! That worked! Ours doesn't even have the sticker for the reset button so we didn't know about it - until we saw your video. We tried the reset button (looks just like yours, but the button on ours is black) and followed the normal lighting instructions after pushing the reset button and it works! Thank you for showing the button.
I have been trying for 1 week to relight my water heater, was beginning to watch on how to dissemble pilot, no need ur video freaking worked thanks dude keep it up
Man thank you thank you thank you !! Oldie but goodie lol!! Had that little tiny switch trip pushed it in and boom 💥 fired up! Your the man!!
... I always forget that little breaker! Thanks for the reminder! Great post.
Hallelujah!....Got it working again...that little button thing worked....Happy 4th of July 2020
Thank you, sir! This woman got her hot water heater working again! Informative videos!
Hey thanks for the advice on resetting the igniter. You probably saved me at least 100 bucks. Thank you!
Thank you for this! I have the same unit. My pilot light went out and called my plumber to come out. I pushed that reset button an viola! It lit! I made sure I turned down the hot water with your advice. Thank you for this video!!!
I know this video is old, but man did it save my butt!! It's Thanksgiving and my water heater just quit. No stores are open (obviously). Searched web for thermocouple replacements thinking that might have been the problem until you pointed out that little reset switch. Pressed the button it clicked, started the pilot, it stayed on and everything started to work again. Going to teach the wife how to do the same thing when I have to travel. :)
Thank You! :) That little button did the trick. I would have never seen that thing. Saved us from not having hot water over the weekend in the winter.
Hey
Just appreciate the time you took to do this video. I cleaned out all of the filter stuff and finally the pilot light lit but wouldnt stay lit. The reset button reset it. Cleaning all of the filters out is what made the pilot finally start working but it needed to be reset after doing that. Just wanted to say I appreciate people like yourself doing these videos. Thanks,
Dan
Omg thank you. You just saved me a bunch of money. Plumber never told me about that reset switch. Never been able to find it. Your awesome!!!!
Thank you so much! The reset button did it for me.
Happy to help👍
Dude you saved me from buying a new heater. Tried for 2 days lighting it. It would light but the red light wouldn't blink and soon as u turned nob it would shut off. All it was is that little white button. Thanks a ton!!!!!!@@!
That reset button saved me. Thanks for the video!
Thanks buddy and God Bless you!! Didn’t have a clue about a reset switch! You saved me a day of frustration

Super thankful; it was the little clicker😎😎. Thanks for taking the time to create this!

Huge thanks to you for this video. Pushing that little white button in finally solved my water heater pilot not staying lit!! No other vids online mentioned that. Fixed my problem, ahhh hot showers again!!

You're welcome!!
Thank you so much! The info on the reset button helped make my Christmas merrier.
Worked like a charm! Thank you!! I was getting ready to start taking it apart, then I googled the part number and your video popped up.
Thank you... just moved into a new house recently and the water heater was driving me absolutely mad. We have a newer version of that controller and I’m def gonna try keeping it at a lower temp... I’ve had to reset mine 4 times in less than a month already... saving up to replace this damn thing!
Thank you very much sir I was going crazy saw your vedeo did the reset button thing and bam..i got a light..thank you much..from el paso tx
Thank you!! reset did the trick! You are awesome. Well my wife said that part....bless you!
Just relight and left it on hot not all the way on C.... hopefully it works out.... ty for the heads up...!
Life saver.. This is what happen to me. My water heater went out and I paid a repair person too come over. He reset it and charged me a $40 fee. He was here about 3 minutes. It took me longer too find $40 in cash. So, when it happen again, I remembered the reset button. Just couldn't remember where it was.... Thanks a lot... Hot waters flowing again... I reset it last night but I set the thermostat on "Very Hot" and it went out again. This is when the reset button came in handy. Hot water flowing again....
Glad to help! Please consider subscribing to this channel if you haven’t already
Thank you. My heater has restarted. New Year's Eve weekend begun with a cold shower this morning. Big suck, I tell you!
Thank you so much! Never new knew about the reset button. It worked right away after the reset.
You’re welcome! Thank you for the kind comment.
Thanks for info . You saved me bout $80 for just pushing the reset button
That dang reset button, thanks for the help!
Worked instantly! I never even bothered to look at the thermo but it worked after about two hours off lol
Oh my god. Thank you so much. I was losing my mind.
This worked!!!! Watched several videos and yours worked!!!! Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
man you just saved me so much money! thank you thank you thank you
Thru 2020, these parts run $600 a piece, however, Honeywell has part insurance on most of these babies up until they are 9 years old. I got mine thru Rheem but you wait a few weeks to get them.
After cleaning out the filter the pilot did not stay on. However, when I pushed the little gadget as demonstrated in the video the pilot light stays on. Again, thank you.
Thank You Very Much. My pilot light would Not light all afternoon, until I hit the reset button which pressed in one time, after that the button does not press in, answer was obvious, if it does not push in then it does not need resetting, it pushes in only when it needs resetting. Thank You, You have save me a lot of money. My insurance just required me to install a new roof, so I do not have money for hot water heater repairman. My hot water heater is only 6 years old & the warranty ends at 6 years old. A coincidence that button needs pressing at the end of the warranty, hghhh.
Pressed the little button on the bottom right between the red wires (black button for us, not white) and it worked!
Thank you so much for your video I saved our butts
This really helped, didn't notice the button until you mentioned it!
So I couldn’t get my pilot to light. I was ready to follow your instructions after trying to light the pilot. After it didn’t light , I turned the knob to high and in less than 10 seconds it lit by itself!!!! I didn’t have to go to the next 2 settings to get it to light. Thanks for the help!
You’re welcome! Thank you for the kind comment!👍😎
THANK YOU! That tiny button fixed my problem!!
J A Happy to Help👍

Juan Guevara Check out my video on how to light it.
that little button did the trick ,im glad i found this video
Well you are a genius. Thank you!!
That’s what I tell my wife! Jk
Thank you for the kind comment!👍😎
Ty, I had watched a 4 blink of death video that help, but I noticed it would go out every so often, anyway this video helped . I didn't even know there was a white button lol ty..
Wow! A life saver. That white button! Tyvm
Looks like some good tips. I'll try this out and see how it goes.
Man thank you, you saved me a bundle i don't have for service fees. If i had the money i'd buy you a bag of coffee lol
WoW, That was perfect! You scared me with the $300 regulator replacement malfunction 'cause I had the heat cranked! I was almost ready to have to call someone in and pay the big bucks then... The grating on the bottom didn't 'look' clogged viewing from the side but when I brushed it off, the pilot doubled in size and STAYED LIT!!!! I would not have thought of that! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You and may God bless you and your descendants for generations!!! I told my wife to tell me I'm an IDIOT if I don't look it up on YT next time!
Oh thank you! We’ve been replacing these controls after this code flashes! LOL
thanks this actually worked for me
You’re welcome! Thank you for the kind comment!👍😎
Great video, you saved the day!! Thanks
Those things are junk as I’m watching this on the cold floor Christmas Eve 2022. Thanks dude
Thank you, reset button did the trick. 1:41
Thank you! It worked! Followed your easy instructions and it worked!!
Had tried everything except the reset button! Thank you! And double thanks on the heat setting! The maintenance guys who had just reset this less than 48hrs ago put it so high, I'm guessing that is what tripped it again. The water was scalding hot before, so this is even better. You're a lifesaver! I was always so nervous about my nephew staying with me that he'd burn himself.
Oh i cant thank you enough i was having problems lite pilot during a crazy panic over coronavirus that was exactly what was wrong with mine of course it took me 2days of trying before i seen this about had a breakdown not of food and supply sortage but of no hot water or having to boil it for everything n to bath 2 children

You just saved me from buying a new water heater, THANK YOU!!!!!
Thank you so much this just got my to light and i noticed it was up higher than hot it was in the B position. It is now on the hot position lol. Thanks once again your video helped me out alot.
Thanks for the video it works fine now😊
Thanks for the great video. My wife thinks I know what I'm doing. Don't tell her.
😂
Thanks you, didn’t light up until I hit the reset button
Having same problem goes out every so often I relight it works fine for a couple days or a week goes out again and so on basically a brand new heater installed a year ago I will try turning temp down I’ve already had everything replaced on it except the water heater itself
Always check your warranty to see if you can get a free replacement of the Controller. Mines was 2 years old, but had a 6 year warranty, so I got a free replacement from the manufacturer. I was able to get my original controller to work again after resetting it. I'm just waiting for it to fail again before replacing it with the new controller.
Saved me a service call with that little reset button comment! Cheers
Good stuff. That fixed my problem.
YES!! Thank you it’s working again!!
You’re welcome! Consider a donation to my Super Thanks. If not, that’s totally okay!👍😎

Dude thank you! My husband gave up after 5min and I refused to throw in the towel or call a damn plumber. The reset button 🙌🏼. You’re awesome. It’s never gone out before so we had no idea what was going on. It’s hot as hell outside and I ran it all day so guess it just shot me the bird and shut off 😂
I hate being that "damn plumber."
@@jondoh3471 “damn plumbers” are expensive…..
I cleaned out that grate thing and pushed the reset button and it worked!!! Thank you so much!!!
Wow! Fixed! That's the info I needed!
Sir .. i just fix my water heater watching this specific video. It was on "super hot" and the reset was off ; but of course i did not know that..so after i cleaned the thermopile and check everything press the reset and hit the igniter and "voila" the unit is working like a charm...THANKS ! Great video , great information. From central FL . USA. ....heck i just save a lot of money how can i send something to you ?
