Left side clicks, when torch applied to either front or rear proofer/ignitor problem goes away.

Done a number of wire swaps from the ignition module to the ignitors.  Problem followed the wire swaps.  From left to right.  I did not swap the valve to ignition module wires because it requires dicing wires.  (hind sight i should have).    I swapped the actualy ignitors in the burners and the problem still persists on the left side after putting the wires back on the module properly.  
I beleive its the ignition module, but is there the potential is it one or both of the left valves/potentiometers?
Questions : 
Is there a way to test this that i didnt think of?  Short of cutting the S1-S4 wires from the knobs and swapping them at the molex connector to the ignition module?
If one burners proofer doesnt function, does that make both of them cause the error?

    Oh I might add, that when I use a propane torch against either of the proofers at the burner the clicking goes away.

SOURCE: Ignitor Switch

Either a foreign object is blocking it, Or the gap for the spark may be set too little or too much, try adjusting the gap. Let us know :-)

SOURCE: top oven does not work...

If the oven is wired properly and correct polarity on the outlet, here is the power flow.
Power will come from the control board relay, through the ignitor, then goes to ground through the dual valve.
The resistance of the ignitor causes it to heat up, the hotter it gets the more power goes to the valve. When the amp draw gets to about 3.2 amps there is enough power for the valve to open and let the gas into the burner.
It is unusual for both the bake and broil functions to fail at the same time. They are separate circuits. The dual valve is actually 2 separate coils inside one housing.
If you have continuity through the ignitors and continuity through the valve coils, check the wiring from the valve to ground. These should be the white wires that come from the valve and connected together before going on to the main neutral connection.
Let me know what you find.
Thanks, Mike

Igniter will need to be replaced. You can go to repairclinic.com and type in your make and model and you will find it there!

2011 Chevy Silvarado 1500 LS turn signal lights on the front passenger side don't work and rear goes fast...

Circuit/System Description
Ground is applied at all times at G201 to the turn signal/multifunction switch. The turn signal lamps may only be activated with the ignition switch in the ON or START position. When the turn signal/multifunction switch is placed in either the TURN RIGHT or TURN LEFT position, ground is applied to the body control module (BCM) through either the right turn or left turn signal switch signal circuit. The BCM then applies a pulsating voltage to the front and rear turn signal lamps through their respective control circuits.
.
Did you check the RT STOP TRN fuse 15amp insturment panel fuse box.
Fuse Block - I/P
Left of the I/P behind the side trim panel
If the fuse is good , you could have a wiring problem or the BCM is bad .

      Unplug your unit and turn off the gas supply at the saddle valve near the unit.

    • 2
      Lift up the hood of the oven. If you have sealed burners, the lid will not lift up. Locate the ignitors near the burners of the unit. Clean any gunk away from the ignitor using a toothbrush. Test the unit.

    • 3
      Pull the burner dials off the front of the unit if the ignitors won't work.

    • 4
      Remove the screws at the ends of the front cover, where the gas supply knobs are located, using a screwdriver, and remove the cover from the oven.

    • 5
      Slide the wires off the burner valve switches and pull them off the burner valve by sliding the switch forward. The switch will have wires attached to it. Loosen the screws holding down the wires of the burner valve. Pull out the wires carefully. Place the wires in a new switch. Slide the new switch onto the burner valve. Replace the knob, and turn on the gas supply and power. Ignite the burner.

    • 6
      Follow the switch wires into the oven if the new switch doesn't work. Locate the module box, which is usually 2 inches by 3 inches. Slide the wires out of the module terminal by pulling on the wire connectors. Remove the screws from the old module and pull the module out. Insert the wires into the new module, using the same wire orientation as before. Reassemble the oven. Turn on the electricity and gas, and turn on the burner.

Jaguar xj6 break light cancels signal

Replace the turn signal switch. Bad contact inside causing a crossing of the circuits. When the turn signal is applied it should open the brake light circuit allowing for just the signal to work. Doesn't sound like the switch is doing it's job.

Only the two left spark ignitors work. I switch the wires from the left side to the right side and the ignitors worked. The wires from the right side I hooked to the left side and they did not work....

Electric gas igniters sometimes get stuck in one position causing a clicking sound. The clicking sound that you hear is the electric arc that is pulsing from the igniter conductor (wire) to ground (the gas burner). It receives power from the electrical outlet that the stove is plugged into.
Residue from food and sometimes cleaning products may be preventing the igniter from producing a spark (Arc) to the base of the burner. This is a common problem that occurs when the stove has been cleaned or food is allowed to build up. Make sure that the igniter and the burner base are clean and dry. This will help with proper operation. Oven cleaner and a small tooth brush may be used to accomplish this. Another problem with ignition may occur if you have too little (touching) or too much space between the igniter and the base of the burner; it will prevent the burner from igniting. You should only have a little more space than the thickness of a nickel between the burner base and the igniter. A good “blue” arc from the igniter to the burner base is optimal. If this doesn’t work, you may need to replace the electric igniter module. Good luck.

Tappan MGF500PBWH right side won't ignite

Helpful when people chime back in once a solution is achieved.

"bad igniter" above was incorrect terminology. "spark module" would be correct.

Problem was the 3 wires on the spark module. They all look the same, but must be seated correctly onto the proper connection. Failure to do so will result in the issue I first described. Seated all 3 correctly and now all burners (and oven) have spark.

GE Cooktop burner doesn't click or light.

Remove all the burner heads and lift the top. Sometimes easier said than done. How do you know it is the module? It could be a cracked insulator on the ignitor. To verify you can swap two of the connections on the module and if it lights then it is the module.

Clicking noise on cooktop even when all burners ignite

I have a viking gas cooktop. The ignitor on one of my front burners wouldn't stop clicking even after the flame ignited. I swapped that ignitor with the ignitor from a back burner, expecting that the problem was with the ignitor and that the back burner would start to click incessantly, but at least I'd have my favorite front burner for use. Instead, the front burner was then only clicking 50% of the time and the back burner was fine, suggesting the problem was related to the burner not the ignitor. I pulled the front ignitor a bit away from the burner and now it is working normally. Hope this helps.
