You have ignitor issues. If there is a spark on your other burners but not this one it is the wiring, the switch (if the sparking doesn't happen with this burner) or the gap is worn. If these hints don't get you to an answer...get a pro in to look at this.

Simpson EZISET cooktop control knob does not turn

Take some electronics contact cleaner, CRC is best, and spray the knob. It has grease inside that is preventing the spring from popping it up so it turns. You'll need to get a new knob eventually and please don't install it yourself unless you are well versed in working with gas.

GE XL44 range - electric igniter for top burners not working.

Sounds like igniter problem. Did some one pull the electrical cord or has a fuse or breaker blown/ Things to check. Your igniter is run by electricity.

Igniter will not turn off once burners are lit.

I've had the same problem for 2 years. Today I removed the four burner tops, the 15/16 inch bolt that holds the burners in place, took everything apart (simple connections underneath), completely cleaned and dried eveything. I also cleaned the 4 knobs and making sure the 4 swiches slide up and down freely then dried everything with a hairdryer. Is now works fine but if the problem comes back, I'll simply unplug the cooktop and light it manually. P.S. I stripped one of the large 5/16 inch bolt that had become weak and brittle. - Try using water or some liquid to loosen the bolts as necessary. Good luck, CHEERS!
