    If your water has a piezo ignitor to light the pilot, I would guess that the filter on the water heater is stopped up.

    If this is what you have write me back and I will tell you how to clean it.

    I am not sure if it is a piezo igniter or not but it is an electronic igniter.
    It does say that it has a filter that needs to be cleaned so that is probably the problem. Could you please tell me where to find it and how to clean the filter.

    Thank you
