I have a 5 burner Dacor Cooktop (SGM365) with which I am having trouble with the right rear burner not sparking. There is gas flow and the other burners are lighting just fine. I've taken the burner apart and made sure the burner ring and ignitor are clean and proper aligned. The manuals are useless beyond the extremely simple (check the house power, circuit breaker, etc...). I am mechanically and electrically inclined and would rather not call a technician if it's something as simple as a wire disconnect. I am not sure if I can simply lift it up from the counter to access underneath or if there is a release someplace. Could you please give some guidance or a link to a more technical reference for the Cooktop. Thank you.

In the middle of each burner, there is a small brass ring that screws in the burner. If you unscrew all five and pull the knobs, the top should come off. From there you can access the electronics. Because all the burners ignite at the same time, I would suspect either a disconnected or shorted wire on your right burner or some corrosion has occurred at that burner preventing it from grounding properly.
