Why your Imperial char-broiler is burner not igniting

Here's how burner not igniting typically presents on a Imperial char-broiler: 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

  • Clogged burner ports
  • Failed spark module
  • Loose igniter wiring
  • A dirty or wet igniter
  • A faulty gas valve

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

There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: confirm the burner ports and igniter are dry and free of spilled food or debris. When that isn't the fix, 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.

Our Imperial char-broiler quit on us and they had a technician out the same afternoon in Jacksonville Beach. Clean, on-time, and they took the old part with them. Would call again.

Called about our Imperial char-broiler in the morning and it was running again by evening. They clearly knew Imperial inside out and had the part on the truck.

Called late at night and a tech was here by mid-morning to look at the Imperial char-broiler. Flat price agreed up front, and they stood behind the labour warranty.
