How we confirm it first
A licensed gas technician tests the igniter, the flame sensor and the valve coils in sequence.
What the repair involves
The failed component is replaced and the burner is checked for proper flame.
Why it fails
Igniters are brittle and weaken with each heat cycle; valve coils fail from heat over time, often showing up as heat that stops partway through.
How to make it last
Keep the area around the burner free of lint and don't let anything rest against the access panel.
Repair or replace?
