Why your Star griddle is not heating
A Star griddle that is not heating tends to show the same signs: appliance runs but doesn't reach set temperature. Failed heating element, igniter, or thermal fuse. More often than not it traces back to tripped thermal fuse. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- Faulty temperature sensor
- A broken door switch cutting the heat circuit
- Failed igniter or gas valve
- A bad control board
Known Star griddle weak points
- griddle thermostat and thermocouple failures causing no or uneven heat
- electric griddle/charbroiler element burnout
- uneven plate heating from failed burners on gas units
- pilot and gas-valve issues on gas charbroilers
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: check whether an ignition click or spark is audible at all when it should be heating. Also, confirm the griddle has power, any gas supply valve is open, and a simple reset — power off 60 seconds, back on — doesn't restore heat. If it's still acting up after that, 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.
How we fix it

OEM parts are widely available through the Middleby/Star network and Parts Town; gas charbroiler repairs need a licensed technician.
