Why your Imperial char-broiler is burner not igniting
A Imperial char-broiler that is burner not igniting tends to show the same signs: surface burner clicks but no flame, or no spark at all. Igniter, spark module, or gas valve. The usual culprit is a weak spark electrode. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- A weak spark electrode
- A dirty or wet igniter
- Failed spark module
- Clogged burner ports
Known Imperial char-broiler weak points
- standing-pilot and thermocouple failures preventing burner ignition
- burner valve and orifice wear causing weak or uneven flame
- oven and fryer thermostat drift affecting temperature accuracy
- griddle plate warping and thermostat faults over heavy use
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Do this first — it takes two minutes: confirm the burner ports and igniter are dry and free of spilled food or debris. If that doesn't fix it, if it still won't spark, the igniter, spark module, or gas valve is at fault, and gas components aren't a homeowner repair by code in most areas.
