A gas stove that won’t ignite can be frustrating, especially when you’re in the middle of preparing a meal. Before you call for help, here’s a comprehensive breakdown of what might be wrong—and what steps you can take.

  1. Blocked Burner Openings
Food particles, grease, and spills can block the tiny openings in your burner heads. Use a needle or soft brush to clean the holes carefully. Avoid using water unless you fully dry the area afterward.

  2. Igniter Not Sparking
When you turn the knob, you should hear a click and see a spark. If neither occurs, your igniter may be worn out or disconnected. This is a common issue in older gas ranges and usually requires replacement.

  3. Moisture After Cleaning
If you recently cleaned the stove, moisture might have seeped into the igniter or control area. Let the stove air dry or use a hair dryer to speed up the process.

  4. Gas Line or Valve Closed
It’s easy to overlook the gas shut-off valve. Make sure it’s turned on. If you suspect a deeper gas supply issue, contact a licensed gas technician immediately.

  5. Power Supply Issues
For electronic ignition systems, a faulty outlet or tripped breaker may prevent operation. Always check the power source first.
