Hello: Live in Arizona, and the sun has fried the rubber button cover for our gas grill ignitor. It is battery operated (AAA). It is a built in grill made by American Outdoor grill. The ignitor works fine, but the rubber cap (button cover) is soft (almost melted) and has major cracks in it. Without the rubber cap the button will fall off. Any help, most appreciated.
Thanks!

The "safety" inside the gas tank has tripped. Close the valve on the tank, remove the hose from the tank, reconnect the hose and SLOWLY open the valve on the tank. This should reset the safety.

If you hold down the igniter can you smell the gas coming out of the burners.
Have you disconnected the pipe from the barbie to see if the bottle regulator is actually letting gas through.
Turning the gas on in free air with no one smoking or naked fllames near the pipe is ok
You just crack open the valve a turn or two and you should hear and smell it.
If there is gas coming out og the pipe and not out of the burners then the gas control valve in the barbie is at fault and needs replacing

I had the same problem, the burners were corroded. The only way to fix temporarily is to take them out. Once you take them out take out the screw and cover on the end that goes into the gas and try to shake out the rusted parts.

Remove the switch and the wire from it as you will have this little switch and a wire push the switch and watch the end of the wire there should be a spark it not you can dog wife check it if you want too. stick the end of the wire to the dog re the wife and push botton if they scream and jump a few feet the switch is good . jus kidding . if it is good just locate the end of the wire so that it is in a more effective position to light the gas,
