Surface burner will not ignite; no clicking sound and no visible spark at the igniter.

Safety first: Turn off gas at the shutoff valve and disconnect power. If you smell gas, ventilate the area and do not use open flames or switches.

• Check burner assembly: Remove the burner cap and head. Ensure they are clean, dry, and properly seated. Misaligned caps can prevent ignition.
• Inspect igniter: Look for cracks, chips, or heavy buildup on the ceramic insulator. Clean gently with a soft brush. Ensure the igniter tip is close to the burner edge.
• Test spark function: Restore power (gas still off). Turn the affected burner knob to the ignite position. If there is no clicking or spark at any burner, suspect the ignition module or power supply. If other burners spark but this one does not, suspect the individual igniter or its wiring.
• Check wiring: With power off again, trace the igniter wire from the electrode to the ignition module. Look for breaks, burns, or loose connections. Repair or replace as needed.
• Replace parts: Replace the specific BlueStar surface burner igniter if damaged. If none of the burners spark and power is present, replace the ignition module.
