Why your Star griddle is burner not igniting
Here's how burner not igniting typically presents on a Star griddle: 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
- Loose igniter wiring
- Clogged burner ports
- Failed spark module
- A faulty gas valve
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, check whether other burners on the same unit ignite normally, which narrows the fault to one burner or the whole unit. Also, confirm the burner ports and igniter are dry and free of spilled food or debris. If none of that changes anything, 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.
