Common Symptoms
- One surface burner does not light while other burners operate normally
- Burner clicks repeatedly without ignition
- Visible spark is weak, intermittent, or occurs away from the electrode tip
- Burner continues clicking after ignition when the electrode is cracked or damaged
Check Before Replacing
- Turn the burner control off and allow the appliance to cool; visually inspect the electrode ceramic and tip for cracks, breakage, heavy soil, or moisture.
- With the burner area dry and unobstructed, observe whether a spark appears at the electrode tip when the control is turned to Lite; do not touch the electrode, burner, or wiring during ignition.
- Compare the affected burner’s spark with a normally operating burner, if the appliance design permits safe observation.
- Confirm the electrode wire connection is seated and that the wire insulation is not visibly damaged; disconnect electrical power before handling wiring.
- If there is no spark at multiple burners, investigate the ignition system or spark module rather than assuming this single electrode is defective.
Pro Tip
A single burner with no or weak spark points more strongly toward that burner’s electrode, wire, alignment, or cleanliness; a no-spark condition across multiple burners is less specific to this part.
