Why your Imperial griddle is burner not igniting
Here's how burner not igniting typically presents on a Imperial griddle: surface burner clicks but no flame, or no spark at all. Igniter, spark module, or gas valve. More often than not it traces back to a dirty or wet igniter. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- A weak spark electrode
- Failed spark module
- Loose igniter wiring
- Clogged burner ports
Known Imperial griddle 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
One thing you can rule out on your own: 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. Once you've ruled that out, a gas valve or spark module fault means working on live gas and ignition components, which is licensed work in most areas.
