How do I know if my spark electrode is bad?

Common signs include a burner not igniting, a weak or absent spark, or a continuous clicking sound without the burner lighting. If you smell gas but no ignition occurs, the electrode may be faulty.

Can I clean a spark electrode instead of replacing it?

Sometimes, a dirty electrode with carbon buildup can cause ignition issues. Gently cleaning it with a soft brush or fine sandpaper might help. However, if the ceramic is cracked or the metal tip is corroded or broken, replacement is necessary.

Why is my oven spark electrode clicking constantly?

Constant clicking often indicates that the electrode is attempting to ignite the gas but failing. This can be due to a faulty electrode, an issue with the ignition module, or a problem with gas flow. Begin by inspecting the electrode for any visible damage or dirt.
