Top Burner Igniter Electrode
The ceramic insulator on the electrode can develop micro-fractures due to extreme thermal cycling and liquid spills. These cracks allow the high-voltage pulse to take the path of least resistance to the range chassis (ground) rather than jumping the gap to the burner head. This prevents the ionization of the gas-air mixture necessary for combustion.

Spark Module
The spark module is a solid-state component that converts line voltage into a high-frequency, high-voltage pulse. Internal capacitor degradation or relay failure within the module can result in a weak spark or a total lack of discharge across all burners. It acts as the central logic and power source for the ignition system.

Igniter Switch and Harness
These mechanical switches are mounted directly onto the gas valve stems. Over time, heat exposure and grease ingress can cause oxidation on the internal contact points or physical warping of the plastic housing. If the switch fails to close when the knob is turned to the 'Lite' position, the circuit remains open and the spark module never receives the signal to fire.
