Disclosed is an electronic control system connected to a gas judgment assembly with an oxygen depletion sensor assembly and a sensor such as an ion induction needle to determine whether a flame is present. The gas judgment assembly includes a nozzle associated with the oxygen depletion sensor assembly that is large enough to permit a flame if the fuel is liquid propane, but small enough to prevent a flame if the fuel is natural gas, and send a signal indicating a flame or no flame status to the control system. The control system can thereafter determine whether a flame is present and, if so, conclude that liquid propane fuel is being directed to the gas judgment assembly while the system is in the natural gas mode. The control system can then open a relay, disconnecting current flow to a solenoid valve if a flame is sensed.
