Frigidaire Gas stove burner won't light

If your Frigidaire gas stove won't light, start with the burner cap. A cap that is misaligned on the burner base can prevent the spark from reaching the gas correctly and may cause an uneven flame. Turn off the range and let the stovetop cool, then reseat the cap. If the gas burner still won't light, check the spark module, especially when the spark is weak or intermittent. Inspect the spark electrode and spark wire before replacing the module. Next, confirm the range is receiving power by testing the electrical outlet and checking the circuit breaker or fuse. If other burners spark normally but one burner does not, the spark ignition switch or the spark ignition switch and harness may be defective. A worn or damaged spark electrode can also make the igniter click without lighting the burner. These are common causes of a gas stove not lighting or a gas stove clicking but not lighting. Enter your Frigidaire range model number to find the exact replacement spark module, spark ignition switch, harness, spark wire, or spark electrode for your appliance.

01 - Burner cap not on correctly

If the burner cap is misaligned on the burner base the igniter may not spark properly, and the burner flame will be uneven. Confirm the appliance is turned off and the stovetop is cool to the touch, then readjust the burner cap, if necessary, so it is seated properly on the burner base.

02 - Frigidaire Range/Stove/Oven Spark Module

The spark modules provides power to each surface burner spark electrode. If the burner is produces a weak spark, or if the burner sparks intermittently, the spark module might be defective. Before replacing the spark module, first check the spark electrode and the spark wire. If the spark electrode and spark wire are not at fault, the spark module is likely defective. If the spark module is defective, replace it.

03 - Incoming Power Problem

The electrical outlet may not be getting power. To determine if the outlet is getting power, try plugging something else into the outlet. If the outlet is not getting power, check the home circuit breakers or fuses.

04 - Frigidaire Range/Stove/Oven Spark Ignition Switch

When the burner is turned on, the spark ignition switch sends voltage to the spark module to produce a spark. If the spark ignition switch is defective, it won't send voltage to the spark module, and the burner won't be able to produce a spark. If your range's burner isn't sparking, check to see if the other burners are sparking properly. If the other burners are sparking properly, the spark ignition switch is likely defective.

05 - Frigidaire Range/Stove/Oven Spark Ignition Switch and Harness

When the burner is turned on, the spark ignition switch sends voltage to the spark module to produce a spark. If the spark ignition switch is defective, it won't send voltage to the spark module, and the burner won't be able to produce a spark. If your range's burner isn't sparking, check to see if the other burners are sparking properly. If the other burners are sparking properly, the spark ignition switch is likely defective. If the spark ignition switch is not sold separately, you will have to purchase the switch and harness assembly.

06 - Frigidaire Range/Stove/Oven Spark Electrode

The spark electrode sends a spark to ignite the gas in the burner assembly. If the spark electrode is defective or worn out, it might not produce a spark, or the spark might be too weak to ignite the gas. As a result, the spark electrode will make a clicking sound when the burner is turned on, but the burner won't light. If the spark electrode is defective, replace it.
