SOURCE: Stove burner igniter does not work.

Your problem is not the igniter itself, but the burner switch that controls the igniter. All the igniters get their power from one spark module that is mounted somewhere in back of the oven. That's why you are able to get all the igniters to spark with only one burner control turned on. This is normal. That is also why you are able to light the burner in question buy turning on another burner. The spark is being provided by a switch that is working. To answer your question: the igniter is removable, but I don't think it's necessary. Cleaning them generally doesn't make them work better. I would check the wiring from the spark module to the burner switch and/or replace the switch. I hope this helps.

its possible your gas regulator is bad or the gas line to the ignitor is stopped up look at the line and see if some type of food has blocked the outlet

SOURCE: stove top burners not igniting

I would check that the range is plugged in first and that any fuse in the range itself has not blown. Fuse in the stove should be near where the electric line from the wall plug goes into the back of the range. Just follow it down to where it plugs into the range itself.

If all those are fine, check the little wires from the igniters all the way to where they plug into some connector. But unless you had a really busy mouse I dont see that happening to all the wires from each igniter. good luck

SOURCE: Maytag MGR6775 Gas stove. One igniter not working.

Clean the burner with a wire brush around where the ignitor is. it needs a proper ground to ignite. When you turn the burner on do you hear a click click click? If so this should solve the problem.

Dacor cooktop - one of the burners' igniter does not spark. Need to investigate what's wrong but do not know how to gain access

To access the spark module and switches underneath the spill tray of your Dacor cooktop, you may need to remove the burner and base assemblies. Here are the steps you can follow:
  1. Turn off the power to the cooktop by unplugging it or turning off the circuit breaker.
  2. Remove the grates, burner caps, and burner bases from the cooktop. Depending on the model of your Dacor cooktop, you may need to use a screwdriver or wrench to remove the screws or bolts that hold the burner bases in place.
  3. Carefully lift the spill tray out of the cooktop. If it seems to be stuck, check for any screws or bolts that might be holding it in place and remove them.
  4. Once the spill tray is removed, you should be able to access the switches and spark module underneath. Check for any loose connections or damaged components that may be causing the igniter to malfunction.
  5. If necessary, replace the faulty component or components. You can find replacement parts for your Dacor cooktop online or at a local appliance store.
  6. Reassemble the cooktop in reverse order, making sure all the components are properly aligned and securely fastened.
  7. Turn on the power and test the burner to ensure that the igniter is working properly.
Note: If you are not comfortable working with gas appliances or if you are unsure about any of the steps, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified technician.

My Dacor PGM365-01 main burner continues to spark after I place a pot or pan over it. I just replaced the spark module - still happening. Valve? Micro-switch? Clean the burner?

What is your altitude?I have the same problem and was told by Dacor that I should have the high altitude version. I'm at 5000'

Kenmore gas range when no clicking when turning the oven on

Get FREE Standard Shipping on orders of $100 or more. Details
Range: Gas burner won't spark or ignite A surface burner igniter switch and a spark module activate the spark electrode when a burner is turned to the "Lite" position on a gas range's cooktop. If the surface burner switch, spark module or wiring in that circuit fails, the spark electrode won't work, and as a result the gas burner won't light. If those components work but the electrode won't spark, the problem could be that the spark electrode is coated with spilled food of is bent or broken. In addition, the electrode won't spark or ignite the burner properly if the ceramic insulation sleeve below the tip of the electrode is cracked or broken. If the gas burner isn't lighting, these repairs may help.

Replace the spark igniter electrode

1396454293470.jpg The spark igniter electrode-also called the surface burner igniter-is an insulated electrode that provides an ignition spark to light a surface gas burner. It sparks and makes a ticking sound when the burner switch is turned to the Lite position. Replace the spark ignition electrode if it fails to spark or if the ceramic insulation sleeve is cracked or chipped. How to Replace a Spark Igniter Electrode in a Gas Range Find This Part

Replace the surface spark module

1377098014986.jpg The surface spark module is in the ignition circuit for the gas surface burners. When a surface burner control knob is turned to the "Lite" position, it provides voltage to the spark electrodes on the gas surface burners. If the surface spark module fails to provide the electrodes with voltage, then it should be replaced. Find This Part

Replace the spark igniter switch

1396454315355.jpg The igniter switch is an electrical switch on the stem of the gas surface burner control valve. This switch completes a circuit to the surface burner spark module, causing the burner igniters to spark when the burner switch is turned to the Lite position. Replace the burner igniter switch if the burners don't spark when you turn the burner control knob to the Lite position or if igniters spark constantly even when the burner knobs are in the Off position.

first check to make sure all the burner tops are setting correctly on the burner base, if not it will make the flame uneven. the way the igniter works is once they feel the flames on them they will stop sparking. make sure the flames are not too low and they are touching the igniter. check them one at a time. if you have any questions message me back thanks

Dacor gas range. I'm trying to figure out why it

Electric gas igniters sometimes get stuck in one position causing a clicking sound. The clicking sound that you hear is the electric arc that is pulsing from the igniter conductor (wire) to ground (the gas burner). It receives power from the electrical outlet that the stove is plugged into.
Residue from food and sometimes cleaning products may be preventing the igniter from producing a spark (Arc) to the base of the burner. This is a common problem that occurs when the stove has been cleaned or food is allowed to build up. Make sure that the igniter and the burner base are clean and dry. This will help with proper operation. Oven cleaner and a small tooth brush may be used to accomplish this. Another problem with ignition may occur if you have too little (touching) or too much space between the igniter and the base of the burner; it will prevent the burner from igniting. You should only have a little more space than the thickness of a nickel between the burner base and the igniter. A good “blue” arc from the igniter to the burner base is optimal. If this doesn’t work, you may need to replace the electric igniter module. Good luck.
