Tankless Hot Water Heater wont stay on when water is cut on?
I recently bought a home that has a tankless hot water heater. I noticed that when i cut the water the unit cuts on lights, goes out and then reattempts to light again. Then it shows reading that says that there in not enough gas going to unit (gas company game out and said I was getting enough to the house). It actually cuts on, lights and then cuts off (saw it through viewing area). Is it possible that it is not getting enough gas even though it lights up initally? Also on it a noticed that it has a flexible pipe that connects to main gas line and to water heater. Is it possible that it is restricting the flow of gas to keep a flame in the unit?
I know that it sounds weird, but I was really wondering if this could be the problem. Thanks in Advance.

Your ignition control thinks that the burner hasn’t lit.
Either the flame rod is dirty or burner itself is dirty.
These can be difficult to work on.
