Why your Wells deep fryer is burner not igniting
A Wells deep fryer 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. On this platform it's most often a dirty or wet igniter. 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
- Failed spark module
Known Wells deep fryer 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
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. Past that point, a gas valve or spark module fault means working on live gas and ignition components, which is licensed work in most areas.
