Turn on a single Burner and the associated User Interface lamp illuminates. No sparking is evident at the spark gaps of any
Burner. The associated click when sparking cannot be heard. No gas flows while the burner is on. Turning on one other or more
Burner results in sparking at all Burners and ignition of the selected burners
POTENTIAL CAUSES
Burner that don't ignite
have no Power to
particular input channel of
IGNITER module, terminals
SW1...SW5
False flame signal detected
by IGNITER module.
Faulty IGNITER

Turn on all the Cooktop Burners, either one at a time or all together. No sparking is evident at the
spark gaps of any Burner and no clicking No gas flows while the burner is on
POTENTIAL CAUSES
No Power to Gas 4.1.1

ACTION
3.1.1 Check 10 Way Input connector is correctly aligned and located in locking tabs of the
igniter module.
3.1.2
Check the igniter switches are correctly assembled on the Gas valve igniter.
3.2.1 Check electrode for dirt grease,
3.2.2 Check electrode for proper alignment. Disconnect suspect electrode &
make 2-3mm (thickness of 2 dimes) spark gap to chassis with end of HV cable.
Turn on Burner, with gas off & check for spark at gap. If so, replace electrode.
3.3 Replace the igniter module if step 3.1.1-3.2.2 were good.
Verify replacement module corrects the fault
ACTION
Check that the P2 Input connector is correctly aligned and located in locking tabs of the
igniter's module.
Check the igniter switches are correctly assembled on the Gas valve.
Check that the pins on the UI Receptacles are not contaminated and mate correctly.
Excessive wear may deteriorate a positive connection.
Integrity of wiring from User Interface to UI Connector (P2).
Check UI Connector pins for contamination, correct alignment, and good mating
Replace User Interface.
Replace igniter module if step 4.1.1-4.2.3 were good.
Verify replacement module corrects the fault
