Why your Wells griddle is burner not igniting
Here's how burner not igniting typically presents on a Wells griddle: surface burner clicks but no flame, or no spark at all. Igniter, spark module, or gas valve. The usual culprit is loose igniter wiring. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- A dirty or wet igniter
- Failed spark module
- A weak spark electrode
- A faulty gas valve
- Loose igniter wiring
Known Wells griddle weak points
- Ventless system filter loading and airflow faults tripping the unit
- Hot-well and griddle heating element and thermostat failures
- Drawer-warmer element and control failures
- Fryer auto-lift and thermostat malfunctions
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: confirm the burner ports and igniter are dry and free of spilled food or debris. If that doesn't fix it, a gas valve or spark module fault means working on live gas and ignition components, which is licensed work in most areas.
