Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Worth checking yourself first: confirm the food warmer & holding cabinet has power, any gas supply valve is open, and a simple reset — power off 60 seconds, back on — doesn't restore heat. Also, check whether an ignition click or spark is audible at all when it should be heating. Should that not clear it, heating elements, igniters, and gas valves combine high current or combustible gas, and that combination is a licensed-technician job, not a home fix.
