Wolf Range Igniter Won’t Light

A gas burner that clicks but never lights usually has a misaligned, wet, or dirty igniter rather than a gas supply problem. The most common cause is a misaligned or dirty burner cap blocking the spark.

Cleaning an igniter or burner cap is safe to try, but confirming an induction power-module or control board fault requires testing with a meter.

If a burner or zone simply won’t light or heat, yes — but if it’s sparking continuously, turn it off at the breaker and have it checked.

Induction needs magnetic, properly sized cookware centered on the zone — if that’s confirmed and it still won’t detect, the fault is likely in the coil or control board.

It varies by which component is involved, confirmed in writing after the on-site diagnostic.

Once diagnosed, most are same-visit repairs.
