Official DCS gas cooktop parts

Common replacement parts for DCS gas cooktops

• Spark module. The spark module receives a signal from the burner switches and sends voltage to the igniter electrodes to make them spark to ignite the surface burner.
• Igniter electrode. The igniter electrode gets current from the spark module and sends a spark to the burner head to ignite the burner.
• Burner ignition switch. The ignition switch detects when you turn on a burner valve and sends current to the spark igniter to light the burner.
• Burner control valve. The burner control valve controls gas flow to the burner head.

How to fix your DCS gas cooktop when spark igniters keep clicking

A stuck burner spark igniter switch can cause a constant ticking or clicking noise on the cooktop. The igniter switches can get wet and short out when you clean the cooktop with water, and the ticking sometimes stops once the switches dry. If the spark igniter still won't stop clicking after the switches are completely dry, replace the failed burner switch.

Some cooktops have a spark module that reignites the burner if a burner flame goes out with that burner's gas valve still open. If your cooktop has this type of burner reignition system and the igniters click constantly with all active burner flames lit, you may need to replace the spark module because it isn't detecting the burner flames properly or a reignition relay on the spark module is stuck.
