Have purchased (3) wr36c03u-333 gas control valves for my old furnace,
and each of them lasted exactly 1 year. Presumedly, the 333mv unit
only requires 333mv to the pilot, but I remember that it usually takes
about 750mv to keep the pilot lit. This time I was lazy and forced
the voltage to 1.4v with a battery; and the pilot still wouldn't stay
lit when I released the knob. Kind of discouraging. The original
unit lasted 20+ years. I replaced it because I started having to bang
on it to get the main valve to open. Is there any way to get these
things repaired or (or to repair them)? And are there any alternative
units that will last longer than 1 year? --Frustrated
