Trust the ​Gas & Electric Stove and Range Repair Experts

If your gas range won’t light

The cause could be a burner clogged up with a spill. If the flow of gas is restricted, the igniter can’t light the gas to produce the flame.

A qualified technician can check for loose connections in the igniter electrode and safely clean the burner holes. If your gas range still won’t light after the burner and igniter are both cleaned, it might require replacement of the igniter or the igniter control module. The igniter control module is usually located on the back of the range or below the control panel.

If your electric stove top isn’t working

Your technician will establish whether the fault is with the coil, the burner socket or the infinite switch. While the coil or burner can be repaired, a broken infinite switch may mean you need to replace your stove.

If your gas stove igniter isn’t clicking

An experienced technician can establish which gas burner has the problem by listening for the click of the igniter when each knob is turned. If a clicking sound is not heard when the burner knob is turned, the cause may be a wire that has become detached between the igniter and the control module. If the wires are attached and the igniter doesn’t spark, the igniter is likely faulty and will need to be replaced.
