ELEMENT DIAGNOSTICS

• Broken Coil Element Electric coils can crack or lose connection with the terminal block over time through heavy use.
• Faulty Gas Igniter A clicking sound with no flame often points to a dirty or failed igniter that needs professional cleaning or replacement.
• Infinite Switch Failure If your burner is stuck on high heat regardless of the knob setting, the internal switch has likely shorted.
• Radiant Element Issues Glass-top stoves can suffer from burnt-out ribbon elements that require careful disassembly for repair.

GAS SYSTEM CARE

• Clogged Gas Ports Spilled food can block the gas flow, leading to uneven flames or burners that simply won't light.
• Faulty Spark Module If all burners stop sparking at once, the central spark module is usually the culprit.
• Gas Valve Malfunction A seized or leaking gas valve is a serious safety hazard that requires immediate professional attention.
• Weak Spark Electrode Isolated clicking on one burner without a flame suggests a damaged ceramic electrode.

SURFACE MAINTENANCE

• Cracked Glass Cooktop Structural damage to the ceramic surface is dangerous and often requires a full top replacement.
• Broken Control Knobs Stripped or cracked knobs prevent accurate heat control and can lead to safety risks if forced.
• Indicator Light Failures Malfunctioning "Hot Surface" lights are a burn hazard and usually indicate a failing sensor.
• Loose Terminal Blocks Vibrations or heat can loosen wiring connections, leading to intermittent power to your burners.

SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS

• Unresponsive Touchpad Buttons that don't respond usually indicate a short in the membrane switch or control panel assembly.
• Error Code Displays Flashing F-codes or blank displays require board-level diagnostics to determine if repair or replacement is needed.
• Relay Board Noise Loud clicking or buzzing from the back of the stove often indicates a failing mechanical relay.
• Clock & Timer Flaws Inaccurate timers or clocks that reset randomly point to voltage fluctuations in the main board.
