Gas Burner Won't Light: Cleaning & Igniters

Clicking with no flame, or no click at all, usually traces to a dirty igniter or a clogged burner port.

A stovetop burner that will not light is most often a cleaning issue, not a gas-supply fault.

Clean the Igniter and Ports

Spilled food and moisture block the spark and the gas ports.

Fix: Clean the igniter and clear each burner port with a pin once it is cool and dry.

Seat the Burner Cap Correctly

A cap knocked out of position misaligns the flame ports.

Fix: Reseat the cap squarely over the base.

Replace a Failed Igniter

No clicking at all on one burner often means a dead spark igniter.

Fix: A technician can replace the igniter module.
