Why your Star griddle is burner not igniting

Catching burner not igniting early on a Star griddle is usually straightforward: surface burner clicks but no flame, or no spark at all. Igniter, spark module, or gas valve. Nine times out of ten it comes down to loose igniter wiring. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.

Most likely causes

  • Loose igniter wiring
  • A faulty gas valve
  • Failed spark module
  • A weak spark electrode

Known Star griddle weak points

  • griddle thermostat and thermocouple failures causing no or uneven heat
  • electric griddle/charbroiler element burnout
  • uneven plate heating from failed burners on gas units
  • pilot and gas-valve issues on gas charbroilers

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

Before you call anyone, confirm the burner ports and igniter are dry and free of spilled food or debris. If it's still acting up after that, a gas valve or spark module fault means working on live gas and ignition components, which is licensed work in most areas.

How we fix it

First we diagnose the Star griddle end to end, so you're not paying to swap parts on a guess. OEM parts are widely available through the Middleby/Star network and Parts Town; gas charbroiler repairs need a licensed technician. The quote is flat, approved before we start, and every repair carries our warranty.

The Star griddle died mid-week and they had it sorted before I'd even rearranged my schedule. Fair price, no surprise fees, and the Star griddle has worked perfectly since.

Same-day response — a tech was diagnosing the Star griddle hours after I called. The diagnostic fee came off the repair total, just like they promised.

They squeezed our Star griddle in on a busy day and still showed up inside the window. No runaround — they told me honestly what it needed and fixed just that.
