Common Symptoms
- Surface burner clicks or sparks but does not light
- Delayed surface-burner ignition
- Intermittent ignition of one surface burner
- No visible spark at the affected burner
Check Before Replacing
- Turn all burner controls off and allow the cooktop to cool before inspection.
- Check whether the affected burner produces a clicking sound or visible spark when its control is turned to Ignite; turn the control off if the burner does not light.
- Gently clean visible residue or moisture from the igniter area with a damp cloth, then allow it to dry.
- Verify that the burner base and cap are the correct parts, seated flush, and properly aligned with the igniter electrode.
- Check that the range has electrical power and that the gas shutoff valve is open. If gas is present but ignition does not occur, turn the control off and allow unburned gas to clear; seek qualified service if the issue continues.
Pro Tip
Before replacing the igniter, check for moisture, residue, clogged burner ports, and an incorrectly seated burner cap; these conditions can prevent a correctly functioning surface igniter from lighting the burner.
