Possible Causes

Defective ignition module, No power to ignition circuit, Shorted ignition switch on knob, Moisture around spark electrodes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off gas supply at the shutoff valve and disconnect electrical power before servicing. Beware of gas leaks and open flames.

  • Dry the hob: If the fault appeared after cleaning or a spill, dry the area around the burners and electrodes thoroughly. Leave the hob off for several hours.
  • Check power supply: Ensure the hob is plugged in and the outlet has power. Test with another appliance.
  • Inspect ignition module: Access the underside of the hob and locate the ignition module. Check for burnt marks or loose connectors. Reseat all wires.
  • Test manual ignition: Try lighting a burner with a match or lighter (with care). If it lights and burns normally, the gas system is fine and the issue is electrical.
  • Replace ignition module: If no sparks are produced on any burner and wiring is intact, replace the Candy ignition module.
