Why your Imperial char-broiler is burner not igniting
The first things owners spot on a burner not igniting Imperial char-broiler: surface burner clicks but no flame, or no spark at all. Igniter, spark module, or gas valve. Nine times out of ten it comes down to a faulty gas valve. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- A dirty or wet igniter
- Clogged burner ports
- A weak spark electrode
- Loose igniter wiring
- A faulty gas valve
Known Imperial char-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
Before you call anyone, 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. If none of that changes anything, a gas valve or spark module fault means working on live gas and ignition components, which is licensed work in most areas.
