# Monogram surface igniter replacement

### About burners that spark and will not light

One burner clicks and will not light while the others are fine, which tells you the supply and the control are healthy and the problem is at that burner. Before any part is ordered there is a free check that resolves a large share of these calls: the burner cap, which comes off for cleaning and goes back in an orientation that matters. A cap sitting a millimeter proud will spark forever and never light.

What this involves

Cap seating checked before anything is ordered

Igniter, port and harness measured

Continuous clicking is usually moisture

Re-seat the cap and ring

Free, immediate, and the answer more often than any part on this page.

Clear the port

A blocked port gives a lazy flame or none at all, and it is cleaned rather than replaced.

Test the igniter

Spark quality and continuity, against the ones that work as a reference.

Check the switch and the module

Continuous clicking after lighting is moisture in a switch, and a spark module running constantly is not in a state it was built for.

Light every burner before leaving

Including the ones that were fine, because a module problem shows up across the top.

### Everything clicks constantly, even after a burner lights.

That is moisture or debris in a switch, and in this climate it is seasonal. Leave the caps off and give it a day to dry properly — it often settles. If it does not, it is the switch or the spark module, and it should be dealt with, because a module sparking continuously is not in a state it was designed for.

### No burner will light and they all spark.

That is a different and larger question, and it is usually about supply rather than about igniters. Check that gas is reaching the house and the appliance — and if there is any smell of gas at all, stop, leave and call the gas utility before you call us.
