Sounds like one of the burners electronic switches is bad. Under or behind the knob that you turn the burner on with is a switch. One or more of those switches is bad.

soak in some bi-carb soda

u nid the serviceman to replace the ignition coil,coz its hard to replace & expensive the parts,temporary use macth

We called in an appliance repair technician. He said during the cleaning process of the cooktop, when the control knobs had been removed to thoroughly clean the cooktop, some cleaning fluid or water or moisture got into the ignition switch panel under the cooktop. Letting it dry for 24 hours should fix the problem and this appears to have done that.

its a gas cooktop it has to be plugged in somewhere op e the cabinet and unplug it. possible that the electrodes got wet and click from a false sense of continuity, after being unplugged overnight that will sometimes be enough. you also might have a bad start switch on one of hte burners causing the machine to click automatically. try unplugging over night first

did the water fall on the spark module do you hear a faint click ,igniters dont go bad if they get wet if you say theres power going to the cooktop then you might have a bad spark module.

there is a part in the cooktop called a spark modual. it controls all the ignitors when it goes bad that what it does. replace the modual to fix the problem

I recorded video to let u see how its done. Problem Was : non of the burners would ignite (no sparks when knob is turned on). First sigh of bad spark module, but I got spark switches(they harness) as well just in case - One of the spark switches was bad - Check my video how I replaced them. Non of the screws was coming out.
