Hello Richard, I can assist you. The most common problem for gas surface burners is that they get gas but don't light. This is generally caused by dirt or grease splatters on the burner itself. Residential-grade range/stove burners are round and have small holes around their perimeter to allow gas to flow out and create a round flame. The gas coming from these holes is often ignited by a small vertical row of holes on the side of the burner. If these vertical holes are clogged or obstructed, the gas can't ignite.

The solution is to clean the burners thoroughly. Use a toothpick to clear the small vertical holes, then allow the burner to dry completely and try lighting it again. If it doesn't light immediately, either repeat the procedure or consider calling a appliance repair tech.

Regarding the burnere with no click at all, Start by thoroughly cleaning it, then check the connections at the igniter. To check and see if the ignitor is faulty you can remove it and reinstall it on another burner where you know that the wiring is good. It is most likely whtn there is noclick at all that the ignitor is shot and will have to be replaced. Good luck with it.
