I have the same problem, believe it's a bad potentiometer on the two left extra low burners. The other four use a micro switch that you can hear click when you turn the knob. My problem is can't figure out how to remove control panel.

It sounds like there may be an issue with the ignitor switch for the large burner. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Clean the ignitor: Sometimes the ignitor can become dirty, which can prevent it from working properly. Try cleaning the ignitor with a soft brush or cloth to see if that helps.
2. Check the wiring: Make sure the wiring for the large burner is properly connected and not damaged. If you're not comfortable working with wiring, it's best to call a professional.
3. Replace the ignitor switch: If cleaning the ignitor and checking the wiring doesn't help, it's possible that the ignitor switch for the large burner is faulty and needs to be replaced. You can find replacement parts online or through a professional repair service.
4. Call a professional: If you're not comfortable troubleshooting or making repairs yourself, it's best to call a professional appliance repair service to diagnose and fix the iss

If you are saying the clicking continues you must move the burner knob past the LITE position.
If it continues clicking with the knob past the LITE position the ignitor switch behind the knob is bad.

I am assuming your referring to the stove top burner ignitor. Well - I can only say on my Viking 48 inch - it was located at top RHS of the stove on the 'back wall'. I was advised by an 'come to my home tech' that it would be located at the back of my stove (ie he would have to pull out the built in unit and cost me 500$). In fact I replaced the unit in 30 minutes ... I removed the two RHS burners (one screw each), disconnected ignitor wires, removed the bracket holding the burners (one screw), followed ignitor wires to silver box covering the ignitor unit (2 screws), opened it & replaced ignitor. Forgot to say - 1st thing I did was turn off power & gas to the range.

THAT IS THE IGNITOR FOR THE GAS. TURN THE KNOB JUST BEYOND THE START POSITION AND IT SHOULD STOP. IF NOT UNPLUG THE STOVE AND FIND THE IGNITOR ON THE BURNER HEAD AND CLEAN IT WITH A SOFT TOOTHBRUSH. PLUG THE STOVE IN AND IT SHOULD STOP CLICKING

sounds like you could have an igniter problem,also i noticed my stove does that after i clean it,i was getting the igniters wet,had to just turn the burner on and light it with a lighter and leave it on till the igniter dried out.

If they ignitors worked properly before you aunt cleaned them, the problem could be with the way they were cleaned and what they were cleaned with. Please tell me how she cleaned them and with what. Also, had she cleaned them before without incurring any problems, or was this the first time she had cleaned them?
