Why your Star char-broiler is burner not igniting
A Star 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 failed spark module. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- Clogged burner ports
- Loose igniter wiring
- A weak spark electrode
- A faulty gas valve
- Failed spark module
Known Star char-broiler 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
The one self-check that's actually worth your time: confirm the burner ports and igniter are dry and free of spilled food or debris. Also, check whether other burners on the same unit ignite normally, which narrows the fault to one burner or the whole unit. Past that point, 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.
