How can you reset an ignition module that is in a locked out state?

Resetting an ignition module that is in a locked-out state typically involves cycling the power to the system. This is why turning the power on and off is the correct approach. When power is removed and restored, it allows the ignition module to reset its internal state and clear any fault conditions that may have caused it to enter the locked-out state.

In this context, the ignition module is designed to prevent ignition from occurring if it detects a fault or unsafe condition, thus ensuring safety. By cycling the power, you effectively reinitialize the module, which can clear temporary faults or interruptions in the system.

Turning the gas supply on and off, rebooting the system, or checking all connections may help in certain circumstances or address other issues, but they do not specifically perform the needed function of resetting the ignition module. Proper power cycling is the direct and intended method to resolve a lockout situation in this context.
