Why your Imperial salamander broiler is burner not igniting
The first things owners spot on a burner not igniting Imperial salamander broiler: 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 faulty gas valve. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- Failed spark module
- A weak spark electrode
- A faulty gas valve
- A dirty or wet igniter
- Clogged burner ports
Known Imperial salamander 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
Worth checking yourself first: check whether other burners on the same unit ignite normally, which narrows the fault to one burner or the whole unit. If none of that changes anything, 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.
