This worked. My cooker has stopped clicking wildly. I went a step further and removed the top cover by removing the small screws you can see here. They are star shaped for safety. ( risk of electrocution) I found two igniter cables literally lying in a pool of oil. I cleaned it all up and walla , no more annoying clicks. ! Thanks mate!!

I didn't have rubbing alcohol, so instead as a quick fix (after putting the burner on for some time did not help) I switched on the underneath oven to 350 F and let it sit there for 10 mins. I think that heats and warms the underneath layer of the cook top and helps get any moisture stuck there. The clicking stopped for me after that

[@karenalmond6]

Do you know the white stuff surrounding the igniter it looks like a ceramic that you sounded what if that is cracked and broken on one side expose in the whole igniter travel size?

[@essentialhandyman]

The white surround on my cooker is plastic. It's there to insulate the metal, so that the spark comes out of the section at the top of it. I've never had a cooker where that white section broke. However, I would say watch what the spark does and act accordingly. Does it still spark only towards the gas burner or does it spark in other directions?

[@eternalstyle27]

Helpful video! I'm still having this issue and have tried your advice, would you have any more ideas? Or do I need to call a handyman/electrician?

This pretty much works almost every time. Give it another go. Try leaving burners on longer. Then try cleaning and sanding more thoroughly. Then try burners again. It should work.

[@essentialhandyman]

Hi Besmellah. Hmm, I'm not sure, I've only used products which don't leave a residue when they dry. I've not tried soap as unless you wash it off with water (which is one of the things were trying to avoid) it will leave a residue.

[@TinaBesant]

it's my oven that's the problem for me, when I turn the knob to light the oven the gas comes on but ingniter keeps clicking and the only way to stop it is to turn off the knob to off or turn the switch on the wall to off and then the gas goes off. ..my top burners are fine.. so, is it the same principle that the igniter may have some grease or oil on it?

[@essentialhandyman]

Thanks for watching and commentig Tina. I guess it's the same principle but as the oven gets so hot, it's unlikely to be water in the oven, so more likely to be something on the burner. Sounds like you're gonna have to get your head and shoulders in there and clean the burner off. Please remember to subscribe and watch a few of my other vidoes, for more helpful tips.

I’m usually scared of anything electrical but i wanted to try the second method where you turn switch off but fire is still burning. Is this quite safe? My ignition has been clicking for months and it’s driving me crazy!

[@essentialhandyman]

Essentially it’s two different fuel sources. The gas provides the continuous flame. The electricity literally only provides the spark to ignite the flame. Once lit, there’s no need for electricity, so you dont need the gas on. If your stove has been clicking for months, it’s more likely to be dirt than water but try lighting all burners first, as it’s the quicker of the two options.

If it’s still doing this after both, any ideas?

[@essentialhandyman]

I’ll try to help. 1 - What solution did you use to clean it? 2 - How long did you run all burners for? 3 - Did you use sandpaper to clean the over components?

Thanks Mate! I wish my stove had a switch on the wall to turn off the power to the unit! (American codes do not require it, alas.)

By his accent, he is a Brit. They use 220v as their regular elect juice. Hence the plugin switch in regular, house wiring. In US we run 120v. Stove, still is wired for 220v at the panel. In our case a switch cannot conveniently be wired in.

@@BasilRBhan Hi Basil. Thanks for watching. You're almost right. Yes I'm a Brit and we're almost at 220V. Over here we used to be 240V but are now powered by 230V. in our single phase (typical household) supply. It's really interesting to hear that you don't have similar cut off switches over there. It makes us realise how convenient it is and how lucky we are over here. Well, I'm assuing it is a good thing. I'm sure there must be a good reason (apart from the safety aspect of you having 120v over there) for you not having an isolating switch. If you know why you don't have a switch, I'd be really interested to learn. Cheers.
