Quick check — and when it's not DIY
The one self-check that's actually worth your time: check whether an ignition click or spark is audible at all when it should be heating. Should that not clear it, no spark or flame usually means the igniter or gas valve itself has failed, and gas-carrying parts are restricted to licensed work in most jurisdictions.

OEM parts are available through Carter-Hoffmann / Middleby and PartsTown, and equipment is predominantly electric so gas certification is typically not required.
