It is also on file for the WFE616SA and WFE619SA, and the GSP625 and DSP635 ranges.

Wok burner clicking but not lighting

When you push and turn the wok burner knob, the ignition module sends a high voltage pulse down this lead to the electrode tip, which sparks across to the burner and lights the gas. A cracked ceramic insulator, a lead that has chafed or burnt, or a tip coated in food and grease can stop the spark jumping in the right place. Typical signs are clicking with no flame, a spark you can see jumping to the wrong spot, a weak spark, or a wok burner that is slow to light while the other burners work normally.

Gas fitter installation

Work on the ignition of a gas appliance is a job for a licensed gas fitter. Isolate the power and gas before work starts. Route the new 900mm lead along the same path as the old one, clear of hot surfaces and sharp edges, and push it firmly onto the ignition module. Set the tip gap to match the old electrode, then test that the burner lights cleanly every time.

Questions about this part

Will cleaning the electrode fix my wok burner ignition?

Sometimes. Wipe the tip and the burner gently with a dry brush and make sure the burner cap is seated properly. If the ceramic is cracked or the lead is damaged, the electrode needs replacing by a licensed gas fitter.
