Troubleshooting

Common cooktop problems we fix

Here are the cooktop problems we see most often, what usually causes them and how our technicians repair them.

01

Electric burner or element not heating

Common causes: A burned-out surface element, failed infinite switch (burner control), loose or burned wiring, or a control board problem.

How we fix it: We test the element, switch and wiring and replace the failed part.

02

Gas burner won't ignite or keeps clicking

Common causes: Clogged burner ports, moisture after cleaning, a misaligned burner cap, a faulty igniter or a failed spark module.

How we fix it: We clean and dry the burner assembly and replace faulty ignition parts.

03

Induction cooktop not heating the pan

Common causes: Cookware that isn't magnetic, a pan that's too small for the zone, a failed power board or induction coil, or an error code from overheating.

How we fix it: We test the power board, coil and controls and read any error codes.

04

Burner stuck on high or won't turn off

Common causes: A shorted infinite switch or a stuck relay on the control board. Turn off the breaker if a burner won't shut off.

How we fix it: We replace the faulty switch or control board to restore safe operation.

05

Cracked glass cooktop

Common causes: Impact from dropped cookware, sudden temperature changes or stress on the glass. A cracked cooktop should not be used.

How we fix it: We replace the glass top assembly so your cooktop is safe to use again.

06

Touch controls not responding

Common causes: Control lock turned on, moisture or residue on the panel, or a failed touch control board.

How we fix it: We test the touch controls and replace the control board if needed.

07

Weak, uneven or yellow gas flame

Common causes: Clogged burner ports, misaligned burner caps or a problem with the gas supply or regulator.

How we fix it: We clean and realign burners and check the gas supply to the cooktop.

08

Hot surface light stays on

Common causes: A faulty hot surface indicator, infinite switch or control board.

How we fix it: We test and replace the faulty indicator or control.

Before You Call

Quick cooktop checks you can try

  1. Check whether the control lock is turned on.
  2. For induction cooktops, test your pan with a magnet — if it doesn't stick, it won't work.
  3. Let gas burners and caps dry completely after cleaning, and make sure caps sit flat.
  4. Check the breaker for electric and induction cooktops.
  5. Stop using a cracked glass cooktop and turn it off at the breaker.

Safety first: If you smell gas, leave the home and call PG&E or 911 from a safe place. Turn off power at the breaker if a burner won't shut off.

Questions & Answers

Cooktop Repair FAQ

Can a cracked glass cooktop be repaired?

A cracked glass top can't be patched, but the glass top assembly can often be replaced. Stop using the cooktop until it's repaired.

Why doesn't my induction cooktop work with some pans?

Induction only works with magnetic cookware such as cast iron and many stainless steel pans. If a magnet doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan, it won't heat on induction.

Why does my gas burner keep clicking after cleaning?

Moisture on the igniter or in the burner is the most common reason. Let the parts dry completely. If clicking continues, the igniter switch or spark module may need to be replaced.

Do you repair induction cooktops?

Yes. We repair induction, gas, electric coil and smooth-top glass cooktops from all major brands.

Yes. Same-day cooktop repair is available in Sacramento and nearby areas. Call (916) 743-3279.
